Damn, where did this year go?  Wherever it went, it went quickly!  Today’s my birthday, and although it has only just started and it feels good to be me.  Being a December baby I’m close enough to Christmas for it to be cool, but not that close so that you get the ’single syndrome’ - Other Decemeber babies will understand :)

I woke up this morning to a cup of (my favourite) freshly made coffee in bed and a couple of presents to open.  I got some really good stuff - but I have to wait until this afternoon for everything else.  And tomorrow I’m having a Birthday BBQ lunch with fiends, and  ‘roadtest’ the arcade machine. 

But now on to the SCOTCH!  Mmmm. 

Last weekend I went over to a friends place for our quarterly scotch night.  It usually once a quarter because that’s the only time when we’re all in town.  It’s a great night to enjoy some great conversation, and some great scotch. 

I bought two new scotches for the occasion.  Both bottles I have never tried before.  Being new, I paid a reasonable amount, but not too much.  It would be such a waste to have to drink them with dry.

One of the bottles was Glenwood Malt Scotch 8 years - strangely enough its a scotch from Spain!?   I was particularly impressed.  A very pleasant aroma and taste.  So much so, that today, I’m going to stop on the way home and buy another bottle!! 

Cheers for now :)
