    @THE_DUDE ha ha I know of someone who had a bottle of spirits delivered with the anti theft tag thing still on it. They tried almost everything to get it off, those things are strong. They eventually managed with an angle grinder!!!!

    I got an email about a bottle of "whisky" which is aged for a decent number of years, the final few of which were in ex maple syrup barrels

    It's called a "malt spirit drink" because apparently they can't call it whisky because maple syrup barrels are not a recognised barrel type to age whisky in, or something

    To you and me it's whisky

    It sounds really yummy ... the problem is since I am only drinking a small amount, they last a long time now and are stacking up. I have quite a nice little collection on my shelf now ...

    Other problem is it's quite dear

    Treated myself to a nice hand painted elephant pop art canvas for my living room, Elephants are my favourite animal and I'm elephant mad. I have lots of elephant themed ornaments and wall art that looks nice in my living room

    Yeah they are adorable, and really smart and family orientated. I'm currently redecorating my living room so each time I get paid I buy alittle bit or a piece of furniture its coming together nicely now. I also sponsor elephants through WWF each month too

    @rubin16 that's a great thing to sponsor, yeah elephants are family animals, apparently they mourn the loss of their relatives like humans do, you probably already know that :blush:

    @66Mustang I can imagine that whiskey to be very expensive. Went to a whisky shop in York once. That was dear too, but they had lots of testers, think everyone left drunk

    Yeah they tend to stay as a family too, and take care and raise the baby elephants as a whole family, not just one parent. They are quite family orientated and quite smart animals. I think for my next birthday/christmas I'm not going to ask for a present this year instead ask my family to sponsor the elephants at the local zoo for me. You get a free ticket and get your name on a plaque in the elephant house if you sponsor them plus regular updates.

    @Sandy_123 some whisky is just insane to me, 80 year old whisky for £150,000. So if you pour yourself a double there is over 10 grand in your glass. I don't know how someone could ever justify that. The oldest whisky I have ever tried was 30 year old, it was £350 a bottle but I just bought a miniature for £25 just to try it

    @rubin16 that's a lovely thing to do. I also heard elephants are matriarchal and the oldest female is in charge instead of having an alpha male in charge like most animals do, I think that's true

    I won a £100 Warhammer prize, asked for the cash instead, then replaced my broken airbrush with a better model. :)
