I've only just discovered that the name for this type of chair is Ercol. My name for them is back hacker.

Only if that is the company that makes them. Ercol is a furniture brand, not a type of chair.

That type of chair is actually called a Windsor chair, and Ercol are not the only people who make them.

I have just discovered that the Calder Valley is secretly bilingual - the languages being English and Welsh!

I was on a sunny walk on the hills above the Calder Valley this afternoon when I spotted this sign...

No surprise there, but then I saw the other side of the sign...

Only just realised there’s a fill line on my whisky glass…

Lovely stuff Ledaig. It's years since I've been to Mull but I have fond memories of the distillery, usually visited for refreshment after a punishing 9 holes at Tobermory golf course, which is beautiful but nigh on impossible, as well as being knackering to walk round.

No No No

you need to have some air between the top of the liquid and the top of the glass

a) you don;t want to spill any
b) you need to get the aroma

But there will be air at the top once you've had the 1st slurp.
