I was a biker once. A Raleigh, I think. Three speed, pedals, standard handlebars, uncomfortable seat. The bike stand/sprung post thingy got bent on the first day so I had to lean it against lampposts and things. I loved it. Pretty good down hills. Changing a tire and oiling the chain was the extent of my mechanical skills.
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

Whiskey? That's "heavy" beer according to description?
Nice, they do tours, could be fun. And they want me to enter my birthday with the year chosen from a combobox. Can't go there then, scrolling is too difficult in Edge.

Lemmings, lemmings.. There's a recipe on youtube.

I never appreciated scotch until later in life, when a conference in Scotland arranged a tour to a distillery. It wasn't Oban, but their scotch...uh...put my lips to sleep. SOLD!

If you like Oban you should try going a bit south down the coast. Springbank is a personal favourite of mine.

I don't recall trying that one. Besides Oban, I like Talisker, and even Lagavulin and Laphroaig, two that some people might call turpentine.

Oban, Talisker and Lagavulin (especially Lagavulin) are all great whiskies. And if you like them you will like Springbank. Oddly enough I prefer the 12 YO to the 15 and 18 YO ones.
Laphroig doesn't have any justification as a whiskey except as a drink ingredient. It doesn't have any taste besides peat.
It's like liquid smoke, you can put it in food as an enhancer, But why drink it?

I'll have to see what Laphroaig does for bacon.
Not usually what I want, just occasionally.

They are - we went there for my 40th.
But Mum's 60th was better - we went on a tour of every distillery on Islay[^] and Jura[^]. (Not all on the same day, for obvious reasons.)

Rittenhouse bottled in bond rye whiskey. That’s my drink of choose. Either neat or as an old fashioned
