Or Frank, at the very least wearing black armbands.

Maybe such jocularity is out of step tonight, but I will show my solidarity with my French cousins by continuing to live my life as before, with a very respectful nod to those whose lives were so recently stolen.

There is either not much more to say,or VERY much more to say.
This is not the platform.

I am deeply saddened.

Robert.

Mental images of Frank humming "the Last Post" as it was driven away to it's new home........

I am sure it is proud to have gotten you started on the path to where you are now. Maybe its work is not done yet. Or maybe it will just pump out decent gin. Speaking of which, I am thirsty.

I agree with your sentiment here.
However, pressing my little Smart still into action every once in a while to make gin does keep the old thing gainfully employed.
And for me it is the right tool for the job.

Farewell, Old friend

Well, I finally decided to sell my Air Still, it having sat unused for too long.
Got a good price and all that, though I must say its a bit like letting go of an old friendship.....
Ahhhh, the things I learnt to do/make (and not do/make) using that still are indeed numerous BUT most of all, it introduced me to this wonderful hobby......

I hope it serves its new owner well and often......
