I am meeting an old chum in the west end tonight.

I remember explaining to some self-proclaimed afficianado that I found Islay Malts actively disgusting and he suggested with a straight face that I ought to add a drop of water to them. A literal drop of water! I had visions of the silly c@nt sitting at home with a glass of the foul, TCP-tasting filth and a fúcking pipette. Seriously, who's got the time for that shíte?

It wasn't Frimley was it?

[Burney]

It wasn't Frimley was it?

No. Some chap I used to work with. He used to go on holiday to Scotland every year to visit distilleries. Weirdo.

[PSRB]

Exactly, psrb. Do you have fancy glasses, too? I got a pair of these rather bizarre German ones for Christmas and so, to complement these and the decanter, on New Year's Eve I decided I had to shell out £500 on a Victorian sideboard for them to sit on.

Yes, several and whiskey stones I do like my whiskey, blame my dear departed mother for that

How was your visit to the dentist?

Did he give you any of that delicious novocaine?

My jaw hurts, he also seemed to put some magic gunpowder-esque stuff in my tooth. I meant to ask what the **** it was.

I had double root canal done a couple of years ago. Worse thing was I got a terrible nosebleed a few hours later. Not sure how they were connected but I haven't had one before or since so there must have been something. Quite scary amount of blood. Sure you'll be fine though

[Sir C]

I'd avise you to refrain from suggesting that I am some kind of trouser bandit, sc. NTTAWWT

What are you going to do about it dearie, hit me with your handbag? :chaseme:

As you know, I tend to agree. However, I would say that the generally poisonous nature of spirits does make one appreciate the ones that don't taste wholly unpleasant even more. In other words, you have to have got mashed up on Metaxa to really appreciate a good Cognac.

They have this great one in Columbia called Aguadiente - an anise-flavoured liqueur derived from sugar cane.

It's sweet so you can drink it neat when you're wired on pipes.

I have to see a specialist for the other one as my root goes through into my sinus, I expect this to result in nosebleeds
