If 3/4 of your gin & tonic is tonic, make sure you use the best
3 parts tonic to one part gin? That'd be like drinking neat tonic water! Doubles all round and AT MOST 50:50, should be more gin than tonic.

No, he likes his G&T's "dry", like a dry Martini - pour the G, then wave the bottle of T around in the same room. Don't remove the cap, it might splash.

I must say in Fever Tree's defence it is terribly good tonic and I do like a splash in my gin. It is terribly important not to drown out the juniper.

Fever Tree do make good tonic, the recipe is sound when using regular industrial gin.
If you use better gin (artisan/independent distillers gin), then you can increase the ratio to 1/3 gin to 2/3 tonic (or more).
I'd rather be phishing!

2 Parts Gin (At the very least it has to be Bombay Sapphire), to one part Tonic.
NEVER put a slice of lemon in, it mops up the alcohol.
A Twist is acceptable, and no more than one lump of ice.
The Gin should be refrigerated prior to pouring.
Serve with at least three more of the same and never less than a double.

I've recently started using food in my magic act.
I start by crushing garlic, basil and pine nuts.
Then I blend them with grated Parmesan and olive oil.

Eh? and he's spelt 'Presto' wrong.
It became clear on third reading.

Bad Argonia! I will not add an Oxford comma just to delineate pine nuts from the rest of the list.

You certainly should!
I am fully in favour of the Oxford comma: it's use for clarification cannot be bettered, improved, or excelled.

Just had an email from MailMarshal, our corporate e-mail security solution, because it has blocked The Daily Build - 11 Feb 2014 from Code Project;

I bet that little MailMarshal doesn't recognize assembly. You should try :P

I think it has some bad rules. There is no script in the emails, simply because most email clients do not support JavaScript. The closest thing to a script tag in the body is the title "To script or not to script...".
