Fender vs Gibson

[Highlander]

Dave... there are items I "treasure" that are perceived as worthless and vice-versa, as I am sure you understand, and I'm also sure you have the same circumstances in your life, both present and past... Dakota would be a perfect example...

Below is a picture of a bottle of malt whisky that belonged to my late dad... the distillery closed in the 80's so it had a value... I could buy a "replacement" for circa £300 (nearly €400 or $500)... I chose to open it at the most recent reunion of 230 Squadron (I act as the editor for their newsletter). Historically, as they know, if it were not for their predecessors actions I would not be here, and the reason I do some of my research, and being in the final stages of a history of those events to try be published...
So, it made sense to me to raise a glass to the memory of those now passed, and to thank them for the lives they saved, and the lives that followed...
Tomorrow, 9/11/14, I'll be up at granddad's statue, just opposite a monster display of nearly 900K ceramic poppies in the moat of the Tower of London, for some other event now 100 years past,to pay my respects, then up to Whitehall to be at the Chindit Memorial for 1100, for a 60 second moment of silence for events that took place 70 years ago...

Now those are priceless moments...

ps... yes, I did pour them all...

That was a nice thing to do.

[Highlander]

Tasted good too...

I bet Kenny. That honey amber color would make for a sweet les Paul burst. What region? Speyside, lowland, highland, islay or island? And to the 230 squadron I say slainte!

[westen44]

I wondered how that would taste, although that, of course, isn't the most important part of all this.  Looks like quite a memorable event took place.

I'm sure that was some good malt whisky Kenny, cheers

So you still haven't gotten over her then?

[Highlander]

... What region? Speyside, lowland, highland, islay or island?

Montrose... classed as "Highland" but a Dundee region postcode, Ari...

Smooth it was Mark... a number of people remarked on it even though they were not Malt drinkers...

Uwe... too cryptic for my brain-cell... presume aimed at Mark...?

[uwe]

Naw, Dave. One of his youth experiences. Kept secret all these years. My lips are sealed. 

[Highlander]

GP...?

[Dave W]

So you still haven't gotten over her then?

Are you kidding? I was over her halfway through the date!

[uwe]

Wot, all over her halfway through the date?  I'm both impressed and aghast then. And I thought you were an old style gentleman. No tongue and such. On the first date at least. Now I know that first chance you get, you do things by halves ...

I won't respond to your provocation. And I didn't respond to hers either.

[uwe]

How insensitive then. 

[TBird1958]

Some detail would be nice
