Laphroaig is a favourite of mine.
Its a favorite of mine too - but I find that i need to be in the mood for it which means mine is rarely touched but a real treat when i do pour myself a glass of it.
I have quite a decent whisky collection for someone who has a glass once every so often. my biggest favorites so far have been the Aberlour A'bunadh for obvious reasons (60.5% ABV
) and a Japanese whisky called the 'Hibiki 12' I was after a bottle called 'The Yamazaki 12' but those are very hard to get and bloody expensive when found! They used to be about £40 but then there was a shortage and prices went as far as £120-170. Even my Hibiki is up at £80 in some places which is almost double what i paid for it.Anyhoo - my new carbon bike has just arrived from Tredz so its time to put the kettle on and start putting it together.

Not a whole lot to look at at the moment. but she's here.
I dont have the tools to take cassettes off at the moment so i cant switch the wheels around by myself.
Unfortunately, upon receiving the bike my ears were under constant barrage of negative comments & derogatory insults which of course included fat shaming etc etc from the proud parent who gave birth to me. All I could do was put some headphones on, turn my music up and carry on.
This happens on quite a regular basis so I dont pay no attention to her when she decides to be more verbally abusive then a Chelsea or Millwall football fan.
but at the end of the day, shes still my Mother....

PUTFORD TERMINATOR...
You're going to cheat now, aren't you
I wonder if this is a spin on the 'Peckham Terminator' ??
If i had a tug boat id call it The 'Ronnie Pickering' and id be the toughest tug boat on the seven seas.
I dont think it would be worthy of the name 'Boaty Mcboatface'

I knew he had been in Cromer so that was a clue. I sort of guessed Great Yarmouth based on the picture as I know that area a bit. It is indeed busy. Its a wonder there aren't more ship crashes.

The Seaway Code helps there. The ariel view, at a quiet time of day. Red one is a Qantas A380

If we used this earlier - we could have found the MH370 in no time.

Until it stopped sending out the required signal.
Air Force One enroute, but keep it quiet, you don't know who'll be reading this these days. When they could just track it themselves.
Similar one available for tracking your train as it actually passes trackside signals.
