  3. #Whisky galore - but #driving a #lorry on #A14 is not the place for it!

    This #driver was put before #Court within just a few days and banned from the roads (he only got suspended sentence, its not usual to get prison time for any #motoring offence unless there's been a serious crash with injuries/fatalities)

    Whats more worrying is he clearly isn't driving a wagon up and down the highway for fun - someone employed him to transport something, and isn't vetting their #drivers correctly.

    He should be in rehab and nowhere near a vehicle (especially not the same roads I have to drive on, and I've already seen quite a bit of sketchy stuff in #Cambridgeshire )

  9. When asked, "Why are you not supporting England?"

    Alexander Watson Hutton, a Glaswegian known as “the father of Argentine football,” established the Argentine Association Football League in 1893. It was the first proper national football association in South America. The brilliance of Maradona, Messi, and Argentine football can be traced back to The Gorbals.

    Also, I shall be raising a glass and cheering on Argentina tonight in celebration of the anniversary of Scotch whisky becoming the first-ever international product to be protected with special Geographical Indication (GI) status in Argentina.

    Vamos, la Albiceleste!!!!

  19. In May I discovered a new-to-me auction site, Fine Spirits Auction in France, and by lucky happenstance the first auction running had a Glenmorangie unicorn that I'd been hunting for years: Chateau de Meursault Wood Finish 12 year. It is Finished in Premier Cru White Burgundy Casks for two years after ten years in American Oak (almost certainly ex-bourbon).

    I've only seen this come up on an auction site once before, in February, and bidding went to over 825GBP, before fees. That was crazy high and clearly someone really wanted it more than I did.

    I was afraid I'd missed my chance, as the previous listing I found for it was in 2020, and the one before that was 2016. I wasn't sure I'd have another shot, but I made myself walk away at that price.

    I'm glad I lost it, as I got this one for 208.60 EUR, including fees! That's actually less than it sold for six years ago. Even after factoring in shipping one bottle from France (which wasn't all that bad actually), it was a massive savings. Probably a quarter the total cost. Sometimes things work out in the end! 😁
