..after a slice or two of one of my well soaked cakes, – you will be anybody’s.
Even I might appear gorgeous
Really not a whisky drinker. The smell puts me off and the taste isn’t much better. Do remember my dear departed grandpa had a huge shelf of miniature whiskies. He loved the stuff. Dare I venture Whisky is actually an elder gentlemans tipple?
… and hence the expression
I’ve been Dundeed
or
I’ve been layer cakedWhat a delicious way to get laid !
Strangley enough I always thought you
more a Tia Maria
and might I add

Not sure about it being an old mans tipple but I think Whisky is a "marmite" drink – you tend to either love it or hate it.
After my whisky episode I switched to Vodka as my spirit of choice – mainly due to the lack of a "distinct" taste.
Not whiskey, of course, but has anyone ever had a ‘barley wine’ hangover…actually, it wasn’t even a hangover; just remember feeling that someone was hitting me over the head with a hammer…and don’t get me started on scrumpy…..I mean, real scrumpy…..
The Barley Moe at Kirk Ireton,the only place to get real Scrumpy round here Moe!

Mrs Mare very good…now only you would think of that..as my kitchen is currently overflowing from every nook and cranny with freshly received beers and spirits, my husband might agree with your last sentence, but
he enjoys a Carlsberg Special Brew normally but I wouldn’t use that puke in anything.
I prefer a heady mix of Glenfiddich, Cointreau and Courvoisier mostly which I find does the trick.Incidentally, I did have some local ladies around for tea the other day. No alcohol was served but by the time they left – they were all p*ssed.
I take it you like a drink gamble, as in some of your posts recently you do sound ‘half cut’, but nicely so

Whitbread Gold Label was a barley wine I recall, and came in 1/3 pint bottles with a ‘classy’ gold foil wrap over the cap. Don’t recall having tried it myself though it was common enough practice when a young man fancied a night on the razz to down the top half of a regulation pint and then add a bottle of the gold label to it
A young lady’s lost weekend came courtesy of Brandy-and-Babycham, which I never knowingly tried either, nor ever felt any particular need to
The ’70s: posh or what?
Chivas Regal, Famous Grous and the newcomer from the same stable Black Grouse. Cannot drink malts at all.
Bob’s hot toddy is Lemsip, honey and three caps of good blended scotch.
We had an auntie, a bit of a battleaxe, who told the doctor’s she was teetotal, but we knew that she went to bed with a double neet Grouse every night. She insisted that this was not drink, it was medicine.
Can’t beat the uisce beatha! Powers would probably be my favourite whiskey. Paddy isn’t that far behind. Wouldn’t be a fan of Jameson though.
Do like a whisky
out of the Malts, possibly like Oban the best.
Blended, Whyte and Mackay or teachers. But Bells and grouse just fine
Irish whiskeys…well..jamesons is totally bland and most insipid short ive come across, so havent tried any others…
But in the US, Makers Mark is superb. and still like a JD
I’ve hated the taste and smell of whiskey nearly all my life, I think since I sank a glass at the age of 4 at someones funeral and apparrently was very ill.
Last year I did the Jameson distillery tour outside Cork and it ends with sampling session. Actually, it was a very large sample. So I thought oh well might as well try it seeing as it’s paid for, fully expecting to gag, shiver and give the rest to someone else.
Well … I found out I really like Irish whisky, it’s completely different to Scottish whiskey, none of the smokey taste I so hate.
As if I don’t have too many vices already

Irish – whiskey
Scottish – whiskyGet it right!
I don’t drink Scotch myself how ever married to man who is a bit of a connosiuer I do know quite a bit about it & have visit lots of distilliers over the years Glen ord glen fiddich glenfarclas & The dalmore to name a few my husband recommends 15 year old Dalmore although but it from Harrods as it’s cheaper than at the Distillery !!!!
God Bless Santa Claus and the fact that apparently I’m "impossible to buy for" at Christmas.
I have now got to work my way steadily through :-
12yo Glenfiddich
14yo Clynelish
10yo Talisker and a
12yo Cragganmore
When I wake up the other side of Royal Ascot I’ll report which is my "current" favourite.
Cheers
