a+ for lighting and clarity - that glass looks like you could just lift it out of the screen!!

i have now polished off my xmas whiskies

Yeah it is, just as well I run the site otherwise it'd be getting a telling off

I only wish I got rid of the condensation!

Back to drink - I've sampling Scottish beers of late, of the hoppy type. Paying a few visits to the place of Easter Rd and the wine shop at the top of Broughton. Anyway, Williams Gold and the Nimbus Blonde and top picks.

I know the Easter Road place you mean. I just had an Artois Bock.

They had Canadian "grain spirit" too, also Â£6. Although it was in the booze aisle, not the cleaning products bit, strangely.

You whisky lovers have to try Innis and Gun - it's beer brewed in whisky barrels (in Edinburgh). Flipping gorgeous.

Conelius - great shop, very knowledgeable nice owner, have frequented it several times

Innis & Gunn - very yummy and strangely buttery tasting:D

Correctamundo.

Don't update to CDs though. Just buy a turntable. Sandra knows where to get them.

teddygirl · Post by **teddygirl** » 27 Feb 2006, 17:27

I actually have a turntable, but cant use it as there is a fish tank sitting on the top (it's inside a cabinet) silly idea or what ? ................but there was nowhere else for the fishtank to go

It might not be working anyway as it is a long time since I tried it.

Porty · Post by **Porty** » 27 Feb 2006, 17:43

What a strange plaice to put it. Surely it must be some sort of record?

I feel sad now, as you have reminded me of my 2 poor dead goldfish, and that beautiful yet tragic goldfish-related incident in Leeds in 1992.

Oh no...now you've set me off grieving for our poor dead Gladys the goldfish who tragically commited suicide just over 2 years ago. Maybe we should start a new "In (Pet) Memoriam" thread

Will that not makes us all feel a bit flat?

I had a Marston's Pedigree last night when I watched the last episode of Tinker Tailor. Yumsies.

Snap girls! I'm struggling bravely through without the Lemsip though and putting my faith in medicinal glasses of Brandy instead.

My son has the mumps (yes, he had the MMR...) and I'm not sure if I had them as a kid

However, I do know that Homer definitely hasn't

Ali's choked too.

You're running a temperature aren't you?

Poppy · Post by **Poppy** » 01 Mar 2006, 23:15

Both, probably!

I've not taken flu/colds yet this winter

visited the folks last weekend and they were full of cold - thankfully we didn't catch.

Girls are much better coping with illness though

Epykat · Post by **Epykat** » 04 Mar 2006, 21:33

Can't decide if today's sore throat is a cold coming on or just the after effects of last night

rapunzell · Post by **rapunzell** » 04 Mar 2006, 23:14

Chocolate liqueurs go really well with Lemsip : )

Scorpion · Post by **Scorpion** » 05 Mar 2006, 03:13

Well, I've just had a nice bottle of wine and a pint of old peculier and I'm feeling fine. Any minute now I'll stagger off to my bed and the next thing I know.........zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

With my lunch I am drinking "Firefly" Peach and Green Tree which is apparently bursting with herbal extracts and I can expect to be supercharged ...it must be true cos it says so on the bottle

It tastes lovely but no effects as yet

Think you may be right or maybe a couple of V&T's, haven't quite decided yet, either way TGIF
