belfastguzzi Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 A Northern Irish woman is putting a bottle of whisky that could be the oldest in the world, up for auction next month. – A rare Victorian Scotch thought to be over 150 years old: been in her family for generations. Label says, "Glenavon*** Special Liqueur Whisky Bottled by the Distillers" Glenavon closed in the 1850s Expected to fetch up to £10,000 (£300 a shot) when auctioned at Bonhams, London. Cancel the double garage. Link to comment
jrt Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 Are you kidding? This is a change to get an even bigger garage. Let's see, buy the scotch, open a bar, lose the bottle, lose everything, take out a loan, start a tie-dyed t-shirt business and follow a band around, sell the t-shirts off and invest in dental floss ranch in Montana and a small hotel in Belize, wrangle floss, start up an encrusted tweezers business with a sideline in muffin research only to invent the next big muffin annointment tool, slip on some unbaked muffin batter and pith myself (I've had worse) falling into a coma, only to wake up ten years later, refreshed and sparkling with zircon encrustations, find the bottle of Glenavon, rub rocks in my head for breakfast, sell the hotel, sell the bottle of scotch, buy a 4 car garage and Bob's your uncle.

Did you mean 'muffin', or 'puffin'? Link to comment
