Bruce, I'm a great fan of the "peat" effect - tend to go for Lagavulin. I take it you're referring to something rather better? :partyman:

Hi Janie

I have to practice my English now...

"Lagavulin is my favourite whiskey...Lagavulin is my favourite whiskey..."

When I think of whisky I think of bourbon, and I can't stand bourbon.

Ah! In the UK Whiskey is Irish and Whisky is Scottish.
Bourbon is a biscuit (cookie) you dunk in your tea!

Scotty

I'm having a lot of trouble this time - hacking into the Flypast site is easy enough but keeping it broken will be harder as they seem to have some guys there this time who know one end of a server from the other. Don't worry Cap'n I've stolen the Warp drive coils and jammed their transporters - I think I can hold em off for a little longer!!!! Tell Jim I'm getting my ears curled - He'll neve know

Spock out!!

Along with a Sinclair ZX80 that Robbo found in the shed.
We can use this to replace to web-master's brain.
After all, it seems like it only has a couple of functions to perform--making Tea and banning people.
Shouldn't be too difficult.

You guys forgot one...

Knockando 18 and 21

And there's

MacClellan (spelt wrong) 12,18, 30. That 30 bottle is steep though.


Ah yes, but they are both Speyside malts, not Islay! Its 'Macallan' by the way!

Cheers

Gnome,

Yes, indeed - I always used to like Lagavulin, and still do. When I was doing a distillery tour at Glenkinchie, the lady there pointed me at Caol Isla, and it has been a favourite ever since. Its not quite as in your face as Lagavulin, and can have some rough edges, but it is a really good malt. Bowmore is also worth a try, but go for the cask strength, which is fantastic.

Just lately, I have been looking for the independent bottlings, which are a little more pricey, but offer something quite special.

Cheers


Bruce

I do like Janie's new avatar.

It would appear their new webmaster has taken his toys away in a huff after a deluge of Free Janie postings and PMs...

Morning all :P

Whiskey? Bleeeeeeeurgh! Gin? Now you're talking... :twisted:

Now does anyone have any good cures for a nasty ear infection? I suppose I could try drinking a whole bottle of Bombay Sapphire and see if by the time I come round again, the ear infection is gone?
