Gentlemen, a toast Explanation: This is the traditional phrase - or alternatively, 'Gentlemen, please join me in a toast (to ...)'. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 3 days 22 hrs (2018-07-29 11:39:03 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- or "Gentlemen, let's drink a toast". -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 3 days 23 hrs (2018-07-29 13:13:51 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Yes, glad you noticed that! I had just noticed it myself, so what I suggest now is: "Gentlemen, let's drink to that!" -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 3 days 23 hrs (2018-07-29 13:24:05 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I hope it fits with what goes before. It's difficult to judge without seeing the preceding words, but "Gentlemen, let's drink to (all) that!" would be a sort of generic summing-up. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 4 days (2018-07-29 13:54:55 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- It may also be worth considering phrases beginning with "Here's to" (typical words for a toast). "Gentlemen, here's to..." as in "here's to you / to the future / to our future" etc. |
