And you actually genuinely like the taste of this stuff?
Without almost completely disguising it with water or God knows what else?

Ooooooh yeah. You have to taste some of the good stuff Zooo. Have you ever had a first class brandy?
Ooh, nice to Marc's piccy.
to Zooo's water suggestion. 
Well, no.
Quote: zooo @ November 16 2009, 6:15 PM GMTWell, no.
I think you would be surprised how smooth, velvety and delicious they are.
We're still talking about whisky right?
Well I suppose it's possssssible.
But every spirit, whisky etc I've ever tasted was rather too reminiscent of nail polish remover.

Well I was talking about Brandy or Armagnac, I gave herself a sip of some very very nice Armagnac and wish now I hadn't - as there's none left. From there you get on a nice calvados. Before you know it Zooo you'll be having a neat Tallisker and smoking a big cuban cigar. Er well maybe not. I can oly approach those peaty Island and northern whiskys with a little jigger of water.

Old Moore's?
I have a perverse liking for the Laphroig's and the Ardbeg's but take Ardbeg last in a tasting session or else the others go to waste.
Oh how the boards mock me with posts about wiskey! 
If you start talking about cigars now I'll really cry.
Quote: Marc P @ November 16 2009, 6:10 PM GMTHa ha... fair point. But I haven't ever tried the stuff. The other thing is with the book launches there was never any specific day so it didn;t seem right, well on the first one maybe but I went in to Norwich to look at the book shops and got mightily merry in town so it would have seemed a waste. I'll think of something.
Is that your butler's tray Marc?
And thanks for post Slag. I think I'll try the bomber Harris approach. Now which way is Dresden?

This sounds like a review of Middle Earth prostitutes. 
I just saw MarkP's Hiney.

I'm fifteen thousand words into this new project and decided I might just have re written Harry Potter. But badly.
*reads bigella's transcript*
"Garry Botter played with Bedrig's Magic Balls all night long, whilst Marmony flicked herself rigid..."
No, it seems fine to me

What approach are you using? Did you plan before starting or is it more impromptu?
