A Kindred Spirit
It turned out that it was an even bigger passion of his than it is of mine (and my colleagues will tell you that will come as a shock to them). He then proceeded to show me pictures of his Scotch wall which had shelves top to bottom all full of Scotch. We talked for quite a while about our preferences and ‘Scotch Stories’ at the end of which he presented me with the above which he said was in his opinion the best Whiskey produced in Canada. He explained its’ creation and the back story of the master distiller who created it.
Having now had a chance to sample it (I didn’t open it prior to travelling back to the UK in case it gave me problems with customs) I can say that it is a damn nice drink. It now sits on my somewhat smaller shelf of whiskey where it will slowly be consumed along with it’s brothers from Scotland, Ireland & the USA.
I would just like to finish with a heartfelt thank you to the gentleman concerned.
Thanks
Simon

Sun, Sea, Sand and Spring!
My last Blog described going to a Spanish Ski slope.
Whilst the weather in Southern Spain was cold and wet in October and November (the rain is sorely needed) it has been sunny and dry for about 6 weeks or so. Down on the coast it can still be T shirts and shorts.

It’s the most wonderful time of the year
Christmas has always been my favourite time of the year. For years my parents worked hard to make it a magical time. I would struggle to sleep with excitement and in the hope of seeing Santa. Even after I found out the magic came from my parents, they always made sure it was a happy magical day.
