  1. There are angelic tyres and there are demonic tyres. Both are black and circular. I have a BlackBush t-shirt from when I visited the distillery about twenty years ago. The whiskey didn't survive so long .......
  2. I should mention I'm texting at the moment this was taken .....
  3. Mom and dad (left side) and another farmer just after bottling some 'shine' ....... 1986 ........ I'm the same age now as they were in the photo. I guess I'm more refined as I make wine!
  4. Found this jug of moonshine in the basement of moms house ...... my dad bottled this one in July 1985. His moonshine was aged in second hand whisky or rum barrels (there was a distillery a couple of miles away we sold grain to ...... they gave away old barrels back then). My brother and I gave it a try and man, oh man, was this stuff smooth. We'll be hanging on to this one for special occasions!
  5. I have acquired a couple more bikes ....... in Ontario for now, stored at a friends place. Maybe keep one in the east ..... in case I want to ride some of the great roads there. ........ or should I ship one to Europe and ride there?
  6. I checked the fairing plus screen price plus shipping to Canada. Using PayPal it is Euro 182. Not that bad if the quality is OK. I need a windscreen for my SFC ..... might wait to see what you get and then order a couple.
  7. Paper filters suck in high humidity ....... Just sayin' .......
  8. The two smaller boxes are local breweries in British Columbia. The big box in the center contains beers from all around the world ..... except Canada. Unfortunately I have been called away to fill in on a medevac contract until December 16 so I will have to return to the sampling then ..... I'll also try to document the international brews as well ......
