    I feel like a McLaren executive trying to sign an F1 driver... how can I choose?! :eek:

    The Auchentoshan 12-year old did get me the most intoxicated over the last drinking season, and the Auchentoshan Springwood is a highly-acclaimed new acquisition. The Balvenie Doublewood is a steady performer and the Wallace is feisty. The young guns Bunnahabhain and Monkey Shoulder are rookies yet to be fully tested.

    I'll have a couple of meetings about it and will announce a decision on Thursday or Friday. :D

    All the best,
    Andrew.

    I use to watch old races I recorded on tape or DVD at night, but then got married and was promptly forbidden from falling sleep to the sound of screaming V10s or V8s.

    Edit: I've got you beat tonight Beaks, the 21 year Glenlivet is coming out to celebrate a court win today.

    You mean you can decimate all before you in court, but lose the argument over what goes on your own TV? :eek:

    Congratulations on the win, enjoy the Glenlivet 21. :D

    Also... nice to see the Balvenie Doublewood in your collection. It was actually Dean that put me on to it and I think quite a few FChatters found it either directly or indirectly through him. It's like the official FChat whiskey to me. :)

    All the best,
    Andrew.

    Yep, that's exactly what I'm saying! :D

    I love the Balvenie Doublewood. My mother is actually the one who turned me on to it. I also like the Caribbean Cask. That's good stuff. We just killed an Auchentoshan Three Wood bought on your recommendation. That's good stuff too.

    iRacing......building out sim rigs, etc. Ski season (SHOULD) starts soon....so there's that.
    And--well, I have four Italian cars--so one of them is always needing something in the shop.

    But I was going to hit send but the last car to get worked on was my Land Rover LR3. Front bearings and all four suspension height sensors.

    When I'm not watching F1 and MotoGP, I'm hitting up the nightlife at clubs and music festivals hanging out with scantily clad girls dancing till the sun comes up. Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Miami, NYC, Playa del Carmen. I still have yet to party in Europe though, but my plan is to make it to Ibiza one day.
