Should have Called it Percy's

I see there is a new cocktail bar in Holmfirth, in the same spot that was Percy's workshop used in "A Bicycle Made for Three", I did not think Nora was a big drinker, more like hers husband Wally

Compo's influence from the other side?

Top two cocktails

At number 2 - Sanatogen Supreme - Sanatogen Wine , Coffee[morning] Liqueur , Sherry shaken and topped up with soda water served over crushed ice with a fruit medley like you'd find on one of Nora's hats.

Number one what else but a Bloody Nora [ like a Bloody Mary but with more bite!]

Drink your coffee

....or a Strawberry Daiqui-eli (served in bottle top glasses)

One More a Marina Clegg which is definitely shaken but not stirred.

Should have a safety warning on the drinks. 'Do not attempt to build a bike after consumption'.

From memory the only short drink I ever saw Nora drink was a small sherry in A Tale of Two Sweaters, I can't recall her drinking anything else. But perhaps my other enlightened fans can clarify this?

She ordered a Brandy and Ginger Ale in the episode Deep in the Heart of Yorkshire when she was looking for Wally. Though she only drunk the brandy before Compo could pour the ginger ale into the glass.

Does that count at that was for 'medicinal purposes'

 

[captain clutterbuck]

IF the Doc would prescribe it the prescription charge of £9.65 undercuts the Supermarkets for a bottle of Brandy!

She had two sherrys in Whoops, one at home with Ivy and one in the pub.

Right it looks like I'll be ordering a Sherry Cobbler when I go to Nora's in reverence to the inspiration (and it's the only cocktail I know with sherry). I do hope they develop a Summer Wine inspired cocktail at least for the event.....
