Entry: Pimm's - A823015
Author: Dr Montague Trout - U188966

Here's something a bit different to Cheese and Diatribes on my Camping Holidays.

Needs some linkage and footnotes before I consider the hardstuff in PR. All suggestions will be considered in a mature and thoughtful manner.

Excellent, Mont. Look forward to seeing it in PR.

After a morning traipsing around a Pumping Station Control Panel Workshop, I'm glad to see my Sunday wasn't completely wasted then!

Thanks.

No (sorry, can't resist this comment) - an entry on Pimms is certainly not fruitless.

Much as I dislike the drink itself, I have to say this is a good entry and is pretty definitely up to withstanding the ri.

The end could do with a couple of tweaks, though: "... only vodka-based No. 6, mixed with vodka, is still manufactured." has too much vodka (if such a thing is possible. The last section could do with a couple of comments, rather than just the recipe.

Couple of suggestions for links:
A223002 - The British Empire (should stop people moaning that the "wherever the sun doesn't set" comment is tricky to understand).
and of course
A4960 - Alcohol
There's A331084 on gin as well, though it seems that it ought to link to this as well as the other way round.

Good luck.

Good, thanks, Baggers. Done and dusted. I'll give it another half-day in the W workshop, then PR.

If anyone's wondering, ny first sentence somehow lost the last two and five-sevenths words: "gours of Peer Review"

I had supposed it was "...de through PR"

That was close enough. You're doing better than I, anyway, since I just mis-counted the number of words.

It's over here now, slightly modified. http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/alabaster/F48874?thread=208749&latest=1
