About 3 years ago my shop was inundated with calls from the PRS folk.
For about 6 months the basically hounded the shop with calls.
I just either hung up the phone or laid it down on the bench for 5 mins then hung it up.
Never heard a peep from them since.
My brother(44) and myself(36) have been known on the occasions when we can tolerate each other can recite almost every word of the Goonies.
When we were kids it used to drive our poor mother totally mad.
I have a 2005/2006(or thereabouts) orange five frame. It’s a 14 or 15 inch frame. Had it since new.
done me proud.
Has a newish fox shock on it and i still have the original manitou shock.
Has a hope headset installed. It’s hanging up in the shed if you fancy building it up.
Went to work for a few hours(makes the week a bit easier)
then ran a spur for a new plug socket upstairs(crawling in loft,very dusty and unpleasant). Now watching Elf with my my beloved.
I’ve trained my customers over the past 15 years in buying gifts for me..
Red wine
Single malt. Peatier/peatyer the better.
I get a good 10 bottles of wine and around 3 or 4 malts.
A newbie might buy me a bottle of white or a blend, but i soon educate them.
I feel i earn every bottle.
It’s not that bad. I had some foreskin shrinkage that meant i had to get mine removed.
About 2 weeks of strong discomfort then it started to desensitize quite quickly after that.
If i’m totally honest, takes a bit longer to finish.
Alka-seltzer for the tummy(might make you puke,which helps).
Couple of cans of coke or lucozade for the sugar and caffine,.
And some alcohol. Helps kick start the liver into working
again.
Scapa 15yr old is my all time favorite.
Jura superstition is a recent, and thoroughly enjoyed, discovery.
Mortlach 16yr old on special occasions.
Also own a cask of bruichladdich.
Islay is wonderful. We take the camper every year with bikes and two dogs.
Jura is a bit more remote? Stayed in the two bothies and found the island excellent for peace and quiet.
