Off Topic Afternoon Drinking

Yeah that'll be me.

Nailed on.

Might even have a piss on the radiator in the bedroom, that went down well last time.

The last line has just struck a chord with me.

I've got up in the night after too many and pissed in a wardrobe, the spare bedroom and in the laundry basket.

My mate once pissed on his mother in law who happened to be asleep in a spare bedroom after babysitting.

Going a bit far that isn't it? I did beat the mother-in-laws business partner up once, but Ffs...
 
I've got some great whisky at the moment (recent 50th) but the piece of resistance is a 21 year old Nikka Whiskey that our kid bought me in Japan. Well I say bought. Having looked at it online I assume he either found somewhere there selling it cheap or he nicked it!
I don't care which but I'm not sure I dare open it at the moment !

I've had a couple of bottles of the 12 year old Yamasaki, that was before the price went daft. Great drop of whiskey mind.

I've got a 15 year old Dalmore on the go at the moment which was about £50. The Teeling single grain is about £30 and I prefer that to the Dalmore.

You can get it from House of Townsend at Melton.

I don't know whereabouts you live but it would be well worth driving out to Melton to purchase a bottle.

It really is that good.

I do pop into House of Townsend at Melton occasionally (they have some interesting stuff)
I'll have a look when the scotch stocks run low

I find it hard to drink Whiskey.
Honey whiskey I'm fine with but apart from that I can only really Drink Jack Daniels single barrel Rye .
The Holiday Select is really nice but empties your pocket quite quick

Had me thinking there, thought you had mashed together a Yamaha and Kawasaki motorbike, like a Norton/Triumph Triton :grin:

It's very nice. Enjoyed it. Just drinking the chaplains and cork. It's 8.2%!!!!
Bit like drinking special brew.
Just the Devon mist to go.

Yes, 6%. Aspall's is nice. Always enjoyed Sheppeys in Devon and Dorset. Another good one was Mortimers Orchard which is owned by Westons. Wish my local sold it on draught.

One of my favourites is this (the 500 one) http://www.cotswoldciderco.com/?p=no_brainer

Going down to Bourton on The Water next month. Lovely place but for some reason none of the pubs there sell it, which is odd as it is brewed by Cotswold Brewery, only seen it in a couple of restaurants.. There are a couple of good breweries in the Cotswolds but all the pubs seem to sell the same bog standard stuff we have up here for some reason.

Had some of that the other week, a couple of bottkes along with 2 Henry Westons Vintage 8.2, 2 bottkes of Wyld Wood and half a bottle of Jamesons. Frightening thing was I didn't feel too much effect which in my late 60s I should.<laugh>
Just on 4th of the 6 Cornish Rattlers I got today. Will have finished them by then end of I Know Who You Are. Will end up digging out a bottle of gin my lad won in a raffle kast Vhristmas and gave to ne as he doesn't like the stuff.

I was in Hop and Vine on Albion Street last night.
They have a fair few ciders in there.

Nah, I hit wrong keys when I haven't had a drink for weeks.<laugh>

Trouble is these offers at Morrisons and Aldi are too good. I had knocked off drinking much at home as it is not the greatest path to go down, especially whenyou have an addictive personality and no will power, and at least you could offer the excuse you were socialising down the pub. Nowadays a lot of people my age have stopped going in my local, too many changes of landlord, the price of drink... It tends to be full of young kids who talk very loudly, put crap music on the jukebox and can't take their ale. 3 bottles of Cornish Rattler or Thatchers Vintage or Westons compared to one bottle of Bulmers at £3.45 in the pub surrounded by people you don't know isn't much of a contest. Never thought that would be the situation even a few years ago.
