Last night, KD had a problem trying to get a whisky in a pub.
No, not because they wouldn’t serve him – just because it would seem that bar staff these days just don’t realise there is more to whisky than
JACK DANIELS
Anyone who drinks whisky will understand what I am saying here
Personally, I can’t stand ANY whisky but I do know that Jack Daniels is not REAL whisky. Well, it is, but not like PROPER whisky. For a start, it’s spelt with an ‘E’ – WHISKEY
It’s a particular TYPE of liquor that comes under the broad heading of whisk(e)y but it isn’t the definitive brand
I am happy to stand corrected on this because, as I say I don’t touch the stuff but, it would appear that JD is not in the same league as a Single Malt
It isn’t even the same as a blended whisky like Bells. It’s different
Trying to get something other than JD in a bar now seems to be a mission though
The last three times we’ve been out we have had to practically get behind the bar and point out the other whiskies on the shelf to the nonplussed bar staff
And while we are on the topic of whisky and things that begin with WHISK,can I just say that I am having terrible problems with my WHISKERS at the moment
Women of a certain age start to sprout stray hairs from their chin at an alarming rate, I have noticed
Well, I do anyway
It is a constant battle to stop myself becoming the Bearded Lady
I carry tweezers with me at all times,
I have a mirror and tweezers on standby on my desk at work and I am constantly rubbing my chin to check for new growth
Don’t get me wrong, I don’t get a five o’clock shadow but I reckon it’s only a matter of time
It’s enough to drive me to drink…….

Damned hormones.
Tsk…tell me about it!!!
I don’t have the problem of whiskers on my chin. I have one lone whisker that sprouted out of the middle of my forehead!
That’s worrying! ha ha
I had no idea about the onset of the whiskers problem. Great. Yet one more thing to worry about…
Be prepared. Buy lots of pairs of tweezers and check regularly. They sprout without warning and grow at a ferocious rate! Sorry to be the bearer of bad tidings!!!
