Satire tbh

I think that's true of all distilleries (i.e. chosen for their location near a good water source) because they use shitloads of the stuff.

I was thinking similar. Has to be a wind up.

If it was a decision based on snobbery a Scottish Malt would've been picked instead. Stick that in your ten gallon hat.

Lubbish. It velly good.

So does Marley Marl.

Can't help but think Bigirimana is another one whose development has been stifled.

Had a few Suntory ones before and never been disappointed. They're usually at the Whisky Festival.

Cheers, Ant. Will have a look at that. You seen that Fabulous Four doc about Hagler, Hearns, Leonard and Duran? It's canny and has some great footage. That was a golden era for middleweight boxing when I was growing up. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aGKJfst9kL8

Fantastic photographer. Well known for his 'thousand yard stare' portraits of US Marines in Vietnam and other stuff from conflict zones like Beirut but his 'social history' type photos of the UK are well worth a deek.

Spot on

Was it Barclay who said something along the lines of "Newcastle fans would rather be moaners than owners" when the supporters trust was trying to buy the club. He's as smug as he is ill-informed.

Class that like.

Ken?

I see yesterday was the 40th anniversary of The Rumble in the Jungle. Some good stuff on the Beeb about it. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/boxing/29796214 I must have watched it about 30 times but I never get bored of it or lose my admiration for the way Ali fought that fight. I think some people fail to appreciate how tough and resilient he was because of his repuatation for being such a speedy, skilful boxer. Had one of the best (if not the best) chins ever. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ijOjRTqPICk Fucking magic. The real turning point comes towards the end of round 5.

Sounds like you've got this UK Law stuff sussed.

That bloke who just walks alongside her in silence. What a creepy fucker.

We're just letting it go.

Just thought I'd mention how well the Aussies are doing at the minute seeing as Ken seems to have forgotten to keep us all informed.

Super, Super Gab, Super, Super Gab, Super, Super Gab, Super Gabby Ober

She's quite the big deal but a lot of her stuff leaves me cold. That, however, is mint.

You Can't Win by Jack Black. No, not that fucking knobhead. A massive influence on the likes of William Burroughs and should be of interest to anyone who likes their dirty realism à la Charles Bukowski, John Fante et al. Pure class.

Taking being 'right on' to previously unplumbed depths that I assume you're taking the piss like. Funny either way though.
