    Smile Happy Summer Solstice

    Yay!

    It's the longest day. And the start of Summer proper. Looks like the weather is going to start playing nice, too; let's hope it continues.

    BOING!

    I'll bring the generator and a lathe too
    Always looking for any cheap, interesting, knackered "project" guns. Thanks, JB.

We managed to find ourselves in the middle of the Islay whisky festival (accident, honest..), so a few bottles of whisky made the journey south.
    Sounds like a great trip and the Whisky Fest must have been a real bonus !
    Not been out west this year but next year Islay is on the cards for sure !

    Slainte !

    Ah, gotcha. Let me know what you think once you've tried it.

    The September Bash is scheduled to take place on the weekend of the 7th and 8th (well......the 5th to the 8th!).
