Frantic Hand-Waving Bid for Attention

[f4f3]

Ask me three questions. Any three questions. Of any nature. I will answer as truthfully as I can, and as correctly as I can. Dont blame me if you dont like the answers! Then post this in your own journal, thus letting your friends (me included) ask you anything.

1. Half a bungalow: actually, half of something that used to be a workshop/showroom for the village plumber, who decided to rebuild it in the 70's as his retiral home, and somewhere along the way split it into two cottages, so now he has one half and I have the other. Downstairs is two bedrooms, a bathroom and open plan living room/kitchen. There's also a conservatory which is really a glorified porch, but is big enough for two comfy chairs (usually) or a dinner table which seats six at a pinch. In the beautiful views category, the porch overlooks the Crinan Canal, views of which are of a seasonal nature: rainswept and sometimes drained in the Winter, glittering and occasionally decorated with passing or moored yachts in the Summer. Behind the canal is Ardrishaig, and behind Ardrishaig is Loch Fyne. If you sit looking down along the canal, you can see down Loch Fyne to Arran (unless Arran is obscured by clouds, which it is quite often). The view is better from upstairs, which at the moment is a teenager's loft, complete with double bed, double futon and hammock.

The wine rack is a bit depleted at the moment - some champagne left from K's very generous Christmas present (or was that the liquidation of our Wine Club?) a magnum of Alsace that I haven't had the right occasion to drink, and some mead type stuff from Mount Stuart. The drinks cupboard (actually the drinks dooket) has a little bit of whisky. Jura Superstition (almost done, but I'll refill the bottle because I don't think they do the one with the pewter Ankh on it anymore), three types of Bruichladdich from a visit last year, a Bowmore Darkest, a Talisker, a Springbank, a Longmorn, three Malt Whisky Sociery bottles, and a couple of the United Distilleries Flora and Fauna bottlings (a Ben Rhinees and Bladnoch, if memory serves). Of course, I keep most of my Malts elsewhere.

2. In my experience, mostly Glasgow.

3. As my doctor keeps telling me, one might well lead to the other...

:o) Top answers.

I do like to be able to picture places in my mind, and the cottage description has helped a lot.
