We're still working through the nice stuff brought back from holidays

My refractometer was a wee cheap and cheerful one but it seems to do the job. Or at least gives a ball park figure to work from!
Not had time to do anything much of late. Really need to get all the kit out again...

It's nice in a wee coffee Welsh

Merry Christmas everyone.

These guys have recently built a brand new distillery. Spent millions.

Ooh, I reckon this could be done in a day trip!
Wonder if I could get hubby to drive so I could sample!

I have been building a gypsy caravan. I keep forgetting to take pictures, here it is at the weekend. Today I finished the handrail and started 2 front seats. It has been a weekend pleasure of mine for over a year. It originally had a canvas roof, but the charity I help want to use it as a place to ...

The equivalent of the Glasgow one is also on in Liverpool, Manchester, Perth, Dublin and Aberdeen.
The other Gin to my Tonic events are all over the place including Birmingham, Swansea, Exeter etc. I think the format for those ones is a bit different but I'm sure it's still worth a go!

I've just bought tickets to go back to the next Gin to my Tonic show coming back to Glasgow.

It's being known as the Craft Spirit Show now but same format: lots of makers, lots to sample and it's generally small companies so you're actually talking to the people ...

It's funny how the music is better known now as the hovis ad than it's actual name

Wow! That's a lot

However, I have not related this to time. Did the Whisky topic start off before the Gin one was requested? The heathens (administrators) who started the forum may only have been interested in Whisky topic. You can resolve that. Please advise.


Yes I think so. Is the gin thread not reasonably ...

These are really cool photos Bob

WG - glad your daughter is doing better. We do indeed owe the NHS so much!

Happy new home Ice
Look forward to seeing some photos once you've got your new setup going!

I'll see if I can find some

Babycham! I've not thought of that for years.
I remember feeling very sophisticated when I was allowed a little babycham for the bells at new year!

Maybe everyone is just out enjoying the sunshine

We are finally taking the kids to Disney this year after it was cancelled in 2020. Only 6 years in the planning!

Can you still get engines reconfigured to run on old chip fat? I seem to remember hearing about someone who bought the used fat from the local chippy, filtered the bits out and used that.


Not sure where you live Jenny, but down here in ULEZ London a Diesel car would have to comply with Euro 6 ...

Best wishes to you all xx
