From the insanity, errmm imagination, displayed, I assume these are single malts? Not the ice cream kinds?

Maybe its the dodgy shortbreads? I over indulge on those on holiday too. I am so naughty. Get or make them coated in dark chocolate.



And then dip them in Cointreau. (I am off to the boozer today yippee )

Sorry Tom, still. I never saw the thread until you just pointed it out.

Such innocence from bygone days. We can turn anything crude these days.

Funny, though. Leave it to you to find such things ...

Tom, I almost never click on links. I hate to leave MR.

You'd be better off copy/pasting the articles instead, and then put the link.
+ There's so much to read on MR that I keep to my regular subscriptions. When I get to a new thread it's probably a few weeks old already.

Sorry friend!
