Thats a womans drink innit? well my mum loves a nice g&t[thumbup]

I wouldn't call G&T a woman's drink. If I'm drinking liquor (which i don't that often) I drink Irish Whiskey, Scotch, TN/KY Bourbon mostly, but occasionally you want something light like Vodka or G&T.

I drink them occasionally in the summer or when I'm really hungover but have a social engagement and don't want something really heavy or filling ie: wedding reception. Or, if it's 100degrees like it is now, Makers Mark on the rocks isn't going to go down as easy, nor as refreshing as something like Gin and Tonic or Vodka/Redbull Vodka/Lemonade.

it's similar with Beer. I like Stout and Scottish Ale heavier Micro-brew type beers mostly, but occasionally you want something really light. If it's miserably hot or something, I'd rather drink an Amstel Light or Mich Ultra than a Newcastle or Oatmeal Stout. I'll even drink a really light shitty beer like Natty Light or Beast Light if it's 100degrees out and I'm throwin around the football or playing softball with my friends. If we're downing 6-7 beers on a hot afternoon, it almost has to be something really light and ice cold. Same thing if you're on a dinner date or something. Out with the boys, I'll drink a half a dozen Guiness, but out to dinner on a date, you're better off with something less filling like an IPA or something. In fact, I love Guinness, but I can't ever drink it with food. It's just too filling.

anyways, I tend to have favorites, but also different drinks depending on the situation.
