It's just coming up to 10:30: Ready now, Brace yourself!

It is rumoured that Bomma has quite a big one that he keeps tucked away.
I believe he brings it out for special occasions.

Perhaps if you ask him nicely, he'll give you a go on it. wink

But you'll have to put your back into helping him with the launch.

* Note to Mods:
This is not grounds for moving this thread to NP&E. nono
NEVER!!!! It would be devastating having to go through all sorts of rigmarole trying to get my whisky!!!!
It would be even worse if this Esteemed Thread of Superlative Trivia was moved to the dark dank dungeons of NP&E.

Just imagine THE HORROR! yikes

It is either beautifully aged or vinegar.

You're a brave man, Bobbers.

. . . . .

Garage Aged Whisky - another first from the Complementary Neglect Department at Trivial Towers.
Old wine turns to vinegar, don't think whisky does*. I'm willing to heroically carry out a quality control test though.

*chez moi, it never hangs around long enough
If you need any help establishing whether it's safe for yooman consumption, I'm available at very short notice.

In the misquoted words of the late Gilbert Harding, "I do do consumption, but I don't suffer from it."

Hmmm, I'm not sure about this 25 year old Cutler's Ark.
Better sample another beaker or two...
Oh, and I'm very good at sampling anything with a "Glen" in the name.

Just idly googling away, and I found this little nugget of whisky trivia:

https://coolmaterial.com/food-drink/the-scotch-buc...

All very nice, but some are a little bit pricey at $20k a bottle...

TBH, this drop of Glen Marnoch Speyside that I am currently enjoying is rather lovely, but is disappearing much too rapidly.

I'm just having a bit of a catch up, I see several points have been raised during the evening which require my attention :

Futtette's Suzuki Swift Sport thing isn't silver, it's a orangey reddish colour. I was going to say not unlike Bobbers' Focus, but it's more orange than red really. Think Lucozade rather than rioja.

Secondly, the new toaster is finished in gloss black, jolly nice it looks too. I do have a bit of a reservation with it though, I'll post more about it later.

And finally, yes the trebuchet is alive and well. Probably due for an outing soon I'd have thought.

It burns your Pop Tarts, doesn't it!

They jam and smoulder and catch fire, don't they?

And when you press the 'Eject' button, they remain stuck in the bowels of the glossy new toaster, don't they?

Well, all I can say is, it serves you bloody well right for trying to grill Mars bars in the thing, instead of deep frying them like a normal person. rolleyes

I missed this yesterday - new role at work means i get even less time to trivialise.

I'm not that far away in the grand scheme of things.
