Whiskey a go-go

Best I ever had was Scapa at a mates - he introduced me to Laphroig which I am quite partial to as well.

Just won it on ebay \/

Give me something to read while I'm off work

Another vote for Oban, discovered it when sailing up that end of the world

The Balvenie Double-Wood, Glenmorangie Port-wood finish or the 15YO Talisker (or is it 18YO, I can't remember) I love whiskey

I think I'm getting a bottle of Balvenie Double-Wood next. I didnt think I was too fond of Islay Malts but had one on a works **** up and enjoyed it but I could have been drunk. Expensive to buy a bottle and not like it.

Talisker - less peaty than Laphroaig; Had a very nice Dalwhinnie a long time ago, either a 15 or 20 year old.

Uh huh. Did your notes mention the little men with hammers who climb inside your head in the night? They're in there now. Hammering.

All Stingo's fault.

And who's idea was it to have children? Good god they get up early.

i hate whiskey with a passion. but every year without fail my brother buys me a bottle for my birthday and Christmas.

I've got a cupboard full of pretty looking bottles in cardboard tubes all with names like Glen This or Glen That. Urgh! even the though of it makes me wanna puke.

If you want to off load any matey, just say the word
