Hi Daved1,

Private Message me your full name and address and I'll post a mug and pen out to you.

I have no plans at the moment for car stickers. It's something we've done in the past but feedback from members suggest it's not something that would be widely used.

The price of 1 car sticker costs £5.99 and to be honest I think it's overpriced.

Thanks Aviador, I have PM'd you my details. I would be happy to pay £5.99 for the greater cause of the form but I am sure others wouldn't and having just a few printed may well be even more expensive.

I'm not sure if there is anybody on here into diving but a company in Turkey have bought an old A300 and sunk it into the sea in a hope to attract more tourists.

I think the same thing happened with a TU154 in Varna, Bulgaria a few years back.

Does anybody know what level you need to reach to get the next points upgrade? I've been stuck on 113 for what seems like forever!

This is all I can find Ray.

I'm on 93 points, 20 below you. From the table, I'll receive 20 points on my 1000th post. I see you have over 5000 posts, but don't appear to get an additional 20 points for each extra 1000 posts.
Our good friend TheLocalYokel has over 8000 posts, but is still on 113 trophy points.
Maybe that's it Ray. Perhaps you've hit the ceiling.

But please, don't let that stop you from posting.

Regards

Kevin

 

[Aviador]

There is no ceiling. I can also create more trophy stages.

My first thought was, lets quit whilst we're ahead........but then.....

There is no ceiling.

I shall keep posting with the anticipation of one day seeing the tally increase.

Hi everyone, just in case you are new to the forum, this time of year is traditionally the quietest time for the forum as people are spending more time with family and friends during the holiday season. If your airport thread or forum is looking quiet at the moment why not add something to spark interest? Alternatively, if you have some news to share with us, add it to one of our threads. If it's good enough we'll feature it on our homepage.

 

[Ray Finkle]

Has the what are you listening to now thread been moved?

I was looking for it last night but couldn't seem to find it, even with a search?

 

[Aviador]

I haven't moved it.

 

[Ray Finkle]

I haven't moved it.

Hmmm

I'd had a glass of vino or two last night which may explain it.

I'll have another look.

 

[Aviador]

check your PMs

Just trying this one out. My birthday present from the Mrs

 

[Ray Finkle]

Very nice, from what I remember it's a decent one.

I seem to flit between Laphroig and Talisker which are my two favourites. I did have a bottle of Arbelour bought for me a few Christmases ago and it was rather nice indeed.

 

[Ray Finkle]

Has anyone tried the single malt's on offer from LIDL?

I've not had the pleasure yet but they get very good reviews. I might treat myself tomorrow.

I'm not much of a whiskey drinker. Much prefer cider and the best one i've tasted was made just outside Sonora in California. It's called Indigeny Reserve and unfortunately for me is only sold in California and Nevada!

 

[Brummiegem]

Laphroig is too peaty/smokey for me.Glenmorangie or Glenfiddich is more to my taste.
If peaty whiskey is your thing,then there is a peaty version of the Ardmore shown in the picture above.

 

[Aviador]

Talisker is one of my favourites. The peaty taste grows on you the more you drink it.
