Hump Day Whisky & Vostok

I'm OK with the whisky James, vodka is definitely not my tipple 🤢

Cheers!

Would have had you down for this Dan. I like a whisky also, no preference from Aldi's own to single malt. Just ice for me. Watch looks pretty cool. Can't get used to the term hump day !

Or maybe this..

Brilliant! I've had my fair share of tots of rum in the past - but that is work. Whisky is more for pleasure 😉

Me neither, I'm in a hump most days 🤨

I think I'll try that over Christmas. We have some Amaretto in the booze cupboard too!

I have a fair few whisky cocktail recipes but that's easy peasy and rather tasty. When I worked in USA many years ago whisky sour was my tipple. I can drink almost anything and stay standing but Newcastle Brown makes me howl at the moon!

Brothers

I thought I noticed some sort of whisky thing on Friday nights! I'll be sure to raise a glass on Friday and add to the post! I'll also look out for your unveil. Cheers 🥃

So Newcastle Brown is your GADA choice of tipple now then?? 🤪

Indeed, the mystery still exists somewhat. I first tried it (in Edinburgh) in around 2014 I think. All I know is that is must be from Islay, and there aren't many distilleries there, so could be something Lagavulin, Ardbeg or Laphroaig are pushing out as a side project under Iain MacLeod distilleries. I like the mystery of it all though... and the level of smokiness!!

@DanTheo82 @J4me5ie Newkie Brown my kryptonite! I love it (if ICE cold) but it sends me doo lally. Last time I had some I had a fight with an Xmas tree because "it was looking at me funny".

I do like a Laphroaig but I think its 50/50 love hate thing with my friends.

@weedge @J4me5ie ...

Here is the only bottle of Newkie Brown I've got in the house:

A commemorative bottle for HMS Newcastle's 25th birthday when I was serving on her from 2002 to 2004. Never opened, and it has bits floating in it now! 🤢. Oh, and it's certainly not ice cold 😆

Now that's a combo 👏🏼

I do like this B&W scuba dude 👌

Whisky ans watches are always a great combo 👌

I like a Scuba Dude. And a Honda for that matter. Have a 2007 Civic Type S as my little commuter.

Sheep Mullet? 😆 sounds pretty lethal at 9% too!

That's a plain Jane 2002 Civic, single cam, 1.7 liter, and sadly an automatic transmission. Its the gramma model. That's why when I got it it was still in good shape. 🙂 Our Civic was a sedan. We didn't get the little two door hatch Civic you got. Its dull but reliable!

Honda is reliable and that is why I got mine. I just happened to stumble across a good deal on a Type S when I was looking for a reliable work car (and one that conforms to the recently introduced emission zones in and around London).

Still would have preferred a hatchback. In the US this four door family sedan is considered a compact car.

Love the car, Scotty loves them on YouTube.

Beautiful dial. I really need to get a vostok, just can't seem to find the right one. Although the one you have looks really nice.

Thanks. I was the same and then saw this one and picked up for £60GBP. I did really hunt around, I just waited until I stumbled upon one I really liked.

Yep, stupid name, VERY good DIPA! 👍
