I believe Dr Jennings' theory from TWD season 1 may apply here: we're all already infected






With the tarantula addiction!


Yeah but thats horse****. There are doctors saying that they're pushing the issue to diagnose people with covid when they haven't been properly tested for it...its not right. I believe there is a conspiracy behind all of this ****.

I have 2 favourites: Laphroig and Talisker (distillers edition). Usually I go for the Laphroig as it's easier to get, but when ever I head up to the Isle of Skye I always head over to the Talisker distillery and buy a bottle.

When I have a university exam I usually get a lift in and afterwards go to the post-grad bar. They have both in stock so I order one of each It's become something of a tradition now, but it gives me something to look forwards to after the exam!

Envious of being able to roll into Talisker to pick up a bottle. Kudos!

Skye is my place to go when I need to relax (I've been going there since I was a child). I always rent the same cottage in the grounds of Dunvegan Castle and in the evenings I sit outside with a glass of malt and just take in the view <3

The view of the castle is from my front door, and the view of the loch is from the back of the cottage. There are seals and otters by the house too ^^

Talisker distillery is 30 mins down the road.

I'm a pendleton whiskey fan personally! Love sippin on a glass at night.

Also got this new sticker for my truck! And damn I have a funny story to tell....

So I'm a high school teacher (math of all subjects) and the day after I put the sticker on my truck. Honest to God, I had a fellow teacher ask, "Are guard tarantulas aggressive?"
And my smart ass response was, "Well isn't any 'guard' animal aggressive?"
Then she said, "well is it legal to have an aggressive animal at school?!?"
At that point I lost it and laughed my ass of then said, "It's just a sticker, a tarantula would die in there..." Man, some teachers are really dumb!

This is tied for my favorite of all time.

When I was in my late teens & starting to use pubs we still had a lot of US airbases in this area. So some pubs sold Bourbon. Brands like Old Grandad, Old Crow, Wild Turkey, Four Roses etc. And at that time they were individual brands. Not just brand names owned by big companies.

My current favourites is Woodfords Reserve, it is like drinking liquid caramel. But I'll happily drink Mellow Corn, yes I know, it's not really a Bourbon, but Corn Whisky is where Bourbon came from. Bulleit, Buffalo Trace & E H Taylor.
