The two daft ha'porths commentating on BBC sound as if they've been at the bottle already, the 5 minutes I tuned in for was a positive festival of bumbling ignorance about what had gone on earlier and what was going on before their eyes..."...the isle is full of noises,
Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

I often watch footy with the volume off, nobody needs psychobabble from ex pro footballers, really.
The world cup? remind me? no don't actually. best bit was being at a Bruckner 8 as England were crashing out.....
Right , time for a night cap......I will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed or numbered. My life is my own.

Both seem quite difficult to get hold of - there isn't an Aldi for miles around and they don't do online ordering... But I'm tempted by that one as it's terrific value and if it really is tastier than the Black Grouse...
I'm sipping some Black Grouse as I type, and I don't think it's as good as Highland Black.

.... giving a whole new meaning to 'a Glass of Whisky'[/QUOTE]
Sadly, it does, though neither a glass half full or a glass half empty, to my mind...
Good for you for finding it, though!
