How do you get your whisky in the flask?

I usually pour it straight from the bottle, but almost always waste a wee dram. Just wondered if there's some commonsense method I haven't thought about.

You usually get a little funnel with them ? Or buy a small one.

Ever heard of a funnel? 😉

I got a set of all different sizes from wilkos for not much. Make sure you don't overfill the funnel and end up wasting it anyway though. Not that I have ever done that, obviously.

I have a funnel but it's quite a bit wider than the hipflask spout.

Thinking about it, it does have a tapered end which might work with a steady hand. Trouble is, I don't have a steady hand.

Cheers for that guys, feel a bit dumb for asking now.

Its easy, lie on the floor, put the (open) flask between your teeth (or gums) and pour, may need practising to perfect it but persevere 🙂

Take a mouthfull and spit it out into the flask.

I didn't get a funnel with the STW flask, which I was a bit annoyed at. You even get a funnel with the £4.99 one from Aldi. Very poor.

"I have loads of syringes (for baby, not smack habit)"

pinkie pumps are much better for babies - their little bones tend to clog the ends on standard syringes;

I know you're joking and that, but that's not very nice. Really horrible image.

That's what inspired me! you get a free one with Calpol, but it might take you a while.
