Bob, Dyl, are you using the Bitters in place of the lime, or in addition to?
Lately, I've been squeezing fresh lime juice into the bottom of a 14oz glass, filling halfway with ice, 2 inches of tonic, then filling with gin until the ice is covered, and topping off iwth more tonic...Throw in 2 wedges of fresh cut lime, and you are golden Andrew

As for me, I use a little dash of the bitters in addition to lime, but it sounds like you use more lime than I do.
