    Any scotch lovers out there?

    Aiite: we have about 8 bottles on the shipping order so far. Any other takers, or should I just submit the order as it stands? For the record, the partial list contains: - 14yr old Cragganmore limited edition - 27yr old Cragganmore cask strength - 12yr old Cragganmore special vintage - 30yr old...

    Any scotch lovers out there?

    I saw this early this week (when they sent me the monthly digest) and promptly posted it on Facebook, asking for donations from my friends. None replied, however... Anyways, right now I've got a shopping cart with about £530 worth of (5) bottles of scotch, and their shipping charge to my house...

    Any scotch lovers out there?

    With the holiday season upon us, I fear a major hit coming up for my scotch selection... so I'm looking at finding a supplier that won't charge me the same for shipping as it costs for the bottle in the first place. I'd been using Royal Mile Whiskeys (.com) and was very pleased with their...

    Any scotch lovers out there?

    I bought one of these from my favourite scotch store in the UK (in London), can't find it here anymore - we were told that it was the last bottle available because the distillery closed. Guess they were wrong!!

    First (of 3) annual wine tasting ride Sept.17

    What he said - or you could just simply listen to the description of the wine and decide whether it's worth purchasing any bottles for your future guests or for drinking alone in your basement...

    First (of 3) annual wine tasting ride Sept.17

    The first (of at least two) annual wine tasting ride. By popular vote, I am updating the post to reflect the choice: BEAMSVILLE AREA We'll commence at Kittling Ridge and grab a few bottles of Maple Liqueur and select oak cask whiskey. The winery opens at 10:00am on Saturday. The group will...

    Need a recommended BMW dealer

    I bought my bike at WOLF (in London) and serviced it there for the first 3yrs. Then I tried Open Road (in Newmarket) - and although they're really nice people, their attention falls short of acceptable limits. Three times, they "forgot" to tighten the oil cap and on my way home (to Scarborough)...

    Any scotch lovers out there?

    I have one of those too (click the link below), batch #28 with a bit less alcohol content. Still requires the drop of water...

    Any scotch lovers out there?

    We should start a parallel discussion on the merits of a good cigar - and some suggestions for good places to find treasures like that... There used to be an amazing cigar store (with a "private" basement cigar lounge) on Avenue Road, north of Lawrence on the west side - can't recall the name -...

    Any scotch lovers out there?

    A not-so-close acquaintance unfortunately finished the last drops of this elixir of the gods. If you guys are into more peaty scotch - but not to the level of Laphroaig - this is the bottle ye shall seek. I've never seen it on the North American side, and had the incredible fortune to be paid to...

    BMW owners movement!

    Got an 05 (2nd model for the year), so the "later edition". I have lotsa lotsa mods and toys, too many to list. Well, not "too many" but it would take some time.

    BMW owners movement!

    I've also taken my R1200GS out to the shop in Newmarket (Open Road BMW), and dealt with Paul Nixon and Mike Rocco: outstanding service from behind the desk at the front, hats off to them and hearty handshakes! ... however, can't quite say the same for the people down below in the actual shop: 3...

    BMW owners movement!

    I bought my bike from WOLF, and I also take it there for service and maintenance (they're awesome). Doesn't matter that they're 227km from my house (one way), it makes for an awesome ride! I've had them lend me a bike, on several occasions, to return home and to keep for 2-3 days till mine was...

    Any scotch lovers out there?

    We went out to Allen's, which is a small place on The Danforth that has a dining room and a semi-decent menu, but they also have a 2-pg long (8.5x14 page) in extra-small type, all single malt and blended scotch and whisky bottles list. QUITE IMPRESSIVE. Between the 3 of us we managed to drink...
