Anyway, I worked away and felt much better in the afternoon. At least tomorrow I am off, but I can't say I'm looking forward to taking the VW in for its MOT first thing in the morning... we're just hoping it will pass!
Sophie called me from work to say that the traffic was backed up right to her office, so she left a little bit later than normal, hoping it would clear. She didn't arrive home until well after 6pm and found Keith and I on the sofa with a loving Mooney in between us! We'd put the heating on but the house still felt cold so I'd lit the fire, which made the living room lovely and cosy.
I decided to taste the last two of my whiskies this evening:
December 24th: Talisker Port Ruighe Single Malt Whisky at 45.8%. Another peaty, smoky whisky which put me in mind of those Scottish mountains again and misty evenings. I also detected a hint of sweetness. 5/5
December 25th: Highland Park 18-Year-Old Viking Pride Single Malt at 43%. I detected very strange aromas on this - farmyard smells, then violets, but it was a lot better with a drop of water! 4/5
After dinner, Keith watched football and Sophie and I read. She is reading a book at the moment which she says is the best she has ever read, including her favourite Douglas Kennedy novels. She's just waiting to see how the author ties up the ending before recommending it to me to read. It's been a scary one, with her sometimes squealing as she's read it! Sounds good to me!
