New Fridge today, but my malaise with electrical appliances continued with the vacuum cleaner tripping the mains breaker.

Not going to say where I stayed in the Middlesbrough area last night was rough, but…
The driver of the white van said it was his fourth time getting broken into at that location.
The hotel was going to wait until 8am to inform the blue van driver know.
Shite day for him incoming.

So, do any of you drivers around here know what a mirror is or should they be optional extras?

Clearing out a wardrobe and came across this old gem. From 8 Sqn. RAF Lossiemouth when they still used the ancient Shackletons. I had work experience there in Jan 1990.
Been at least 3 decades since it last fitted!

My wife requested whisky sauce as we’re having haggis tonight. Despite me insisting that’s just for tourists, she wants whisky sauce.
So today we are using lamb stock and unloved whisky.

One for you whisky and train geeks…
Under the tarpaulin at the Strathspey Steam Railway, Aviemore lies the remains of the locomotive Balmenach, used to haul wagons between the distillery and Cromdale station.

Just back from a weekend in Rome. Hotel whisky selection rather dubious.
You know it’s a shithole when only JW Red makes it onto the shelves.

Top tip. Call into @aberdeenwhiskyshop.bsky.social before the National Whisky Festival and get some bargains to prevent impulse buying the next day.
The other top tip is to go when bursting for a wee-wee. You don’t dally long and it limits the wallet damage!

Charlie Kirk. While I think violence in the name of politics is abhorrent as is murder, I can’t say that the world won’t be a better place with his misogynistic, racist and supremacist views not being broadcast.
Good riddance.

2nd bottle kill in a night.
Wifey bought this one for me because she knew I liked Talisker. When I asked why she didn’t buy me Talisker, she said she thought I had tons of it.
I don’t.
Can’t fault her logic though.
And I enjoyed this for what it was.

I’m against putting ice in whisky but hey, it’s your drink. Drink it how you like it.
The newest trend among young drinkers is something called “icy beer”—lager on the rocks, if you will. Is this the end of civilization, or a tasty summer treat? I consider the question.

Bought the wife a 2nd hand acoustic guitar. It needed restrung - which I did and retuned. Only the metal strings hurt her and now I’ve put nylon strings on. Takes ages to tune.
I think I’ve just become my wife’s guitar tech.

One of the poorer things about social media is not meeting people for ages, sending them the odd birthday message, only to find out they died over four years ago.
This is all really superficial and shouldn’t be taken so seriously. Real people more important.
