There's a lovely quotation in one of the James Bond books (You Only Live Twice?):

"The man drinks the first glass of sake; the second glass drinks the first; and after that the sake drinks the man." Story of my life.

Incidentally, it's "sake". "Saki" was the pen name of H H Munro, writer of short stories about mongooses, among other things.

Your drink's at the other end of the bar.

"Sake", not "sake", surely? ;-)

Oh, for goodness' saki.

I didn't expect... pah... too late...
