getting back to your original post of March 14 2006.....I have a friend bringing me back some Polish Vodka next week...I'll let you know how it tastes! :-)

Regards

Jim

Dear Jim,

Get two glasses, a shot glass, and a tumbler.

Use the shot glass for the Vodka and the tumbler for some nice Apple juice. If it is nice Vodka is is a terrible idea to mix anything with it. Chase the shot with the apple juice!

Put the Vodka in the freezer for twenty four hours to get it to minus eighteen!

Damn...my freezer is only at -17....it looks like I will have to upgrade it! Should I be looking at a new power supply for the motor or should I be looking at new door seals first, or should I just swap it out for a new one?

Sorry, it's Friday.....

Jim

Dear Jim,

Get the new Powerline mains cable. The freezer is bound to be performing so well after that that the Vodka could not possibly be nicer. In fact do not hestate. You actaully need the Powerline, or else you will alway worry how much better the Vodka might have tasted, and the waste of your taste bud potential!

Sorry! Its also Friday here!!!

All the best from George

George

I had forgotten about the Powerline but it appears from all the other posts lately that a MacBook and a DAC is what the freezer needs as they seem to be able to cure world hunger.

Cheers

Jim

Not in Georges case.
Its jacket spuds for the next month.
As Delboy said food is for wimps

George,
Thanks for the heads up.
Just picked up some of these.

And some of these large bottles.

Trying the can first.
Very nice

Goodness, the strong variant!

Two of those and you are under the table, but the pleasure is in doing it!

Currently enjoing some merely 5.2 pro-cent Lech! As pictured in the glass! Four of those do the trick! Bach sounding wonderfull as well, in an unusual pose as accompniment to posting! Frank just Skyped, so the Bach must end, and me ring him back!

In the absence of anything Polish I had to survive on 16 year old Aberlour single malt...it's a hard life...

Dear Jim,

When I used to go to Norway to my grandparents, and then in 2000 and 2002 to see my aunt in Oslo [and still going up to the mountains near Geilo at Skudalen] I always would take a bottle of Scotch.

For my grandfather this always had to be Johnnie Walker, but for my aunt I used to take one that was I was introduced to by my one friend who played first bass in the Covent Garden Orchestra! Singletons. A nice single malt which is very smooth, and my aunt really enjoyed it!

We would make one 0.7 litre bottle last a fortnight!

Dear Doc,

Where did ou go in Poland? Please tell me where and how you enjoyed it! Even perhaps post some photos on this thread if you like!

I am surprised that you missed the chance to sample if only one Polish Vodka, but perhaps some of the beer?

All the best from George

My best Polish friend is in Poland for a week with his lady, flying from Bristol to Rzeszow [more or less a soft "G" as J in Jeshuff], and arrived two hours late at a result of an unscheduled stop at Stanstead, where a man who threatened to blow the aircraft up was arrested by Police. After a delay [presumably while the hold was checked and the man's luggage removed] the flight carried on. He was an Englishman.

This has not been reported on the news, and I am simply relieved that it only came to little more than a big scare and a little lateness.

Better than indefinite lateness in my view. Though I have heard and read reports of this sort of thing in the news, I have never had a first hand report from a friend before ...

I shall be collecting the two of them again from Bristol next week, God willing.

ATB from George

All home safe and sound, but the plane was so late that no party occured in spite of everything being in place.

We shall meet up tomoorrow and have a laugh!

This is a first, in postponing a Polish party but everone was bush-wacked, and so much so that I doubted the wisdom of driving, but all was fine. As ever the old Volvo simply trolls along at 70 mph like an old Singer sewing machine, uncomplaining, almost silent, and comfortable, and if not pushed over 70 surprisingly good on fuel.

So goodnight to y'all! George

So here I am feeling just a little yellow!

First night was the ultimate "Mullet" Polish Party - apple juice without Vodka, and last night we made a pyramid of the empty beers for a laugh!

Hehehe! Just surfaced about an hour and a half ago!

Aaaaagh! George

PS: Just had Bigos [from Poland] for supper, so gradually feeling more normal again!
