Delightfully stuck. Until I wasn't. Not sure how satisfying it is as... you try things and there it is. Which could be worse... much worse.

So I'll have equal parts Vodka and Brandy with a small amount of Sherry strained into some dry champagne because.....

First Gaffney (or at least partly Gaffney) meta solve in quite a while! The key is not to over-think.
Unusually for this forum, will have an edible (rather than potable) reward: Trinidadian fish curry.

A few twists and turns but safely on shore. Time for the ultimate early May celebration… Woodford Reserve. Have a great Derby and Mother’s Day weekend.

Happy to have completed this and the MMMM puzzles in short order this week. I don't like to agonize over these and screw up my weekend. :lol:

I didn't say I like it; I just feel it's appropriate. But come to think of it, my sister had to drink it for you thyroid cancer treatment. She didn't like it at all.

I'm ashore with what I'm pretty sure is the right answer, but in finding it, I could make good cases for many others.
