Indeed, we managed to make a spiffing and wizard 315 user. We really did blow the recorded of 286 out of the water.
This calls for a brandy and drunken dancing.

Scotland Or Irlenad? my History teacher insists that Whiskey is an Irish drink but I though it was scottish can anyone enlighten me?

Okay, the best whiskey in the world comes from Scotland. No questions, old boy. The scots know far too much about it for their own good.

Irish Whiskey is good, but not as good, in one's opinion. The national drink of Eire is Guinness, so we shall add that to the list. Also, Sambuca from Spain and Tequilla from Mexico.

One's father informs one to pop along to Canada and pick up some Molson, as that is the best of the 'American gnat's piss' to drink.

Of course you may. Please come in, have a seat, a cup of tea and some crumpets. Jeeves will take your coat and see to your every need, old chap.

Anyone for a game of snooker? One's table has been re-felted and is now absolutely spiffing.

One can one play snooker. Watching it is so boring, same goes for darts. One might not be good at playing them, but still better than watching.

Darts is boring to watch, but good to play in ones view.

Darts is a fantastic game, once you learn to throw on the out breath, which increases your accuracy. (Army technique for shooting.)

One has spent one's first session in the nets today, getting ready for the new cricket season.

Talking of cricket...

First one day international, Johannesburg
50 Overs

South Africa 175-9 (50 Overs)
England 103-3 (25.1 Overs)
England won by 26 runs (Duckworth-Lewis Method)

Ashley Giles was England's hero today, on a rain-shortened first one dayer. The England spinner returned figures of 3-18 from seven overs. England's attack was started when Michael Vaughan won the toss and elected to field. We were soon rewarded, as Darren Gough and Matt Hoggard reduced the South Africans to 19-3. Kabir Ali stepped in and took the key wickets of Kallis and Prince, and when all three bowlers finished their stints with two wicket each, we were looking in control.

England's innings looked shaky at the start, with Trescothick, Jones and Strauss falling relatively cheaply, leaving us 44-3. Michael Vaughan (44*) and Kevin Pietersen (22*) steereing us toward home, when the rain came down. Our higher run rate meant that when play was abandoned for the day, England were awarded the win.

We now lead the series 1-0, with six more to play.

Then say that you are unsure of your future, but two years in 6th Form will help you to 'obtain a clearer picture of how I wish to use my life.'

Well, one has suffered a slight injury, due to the cricket practise. I took a cricket ball on the shin, as I was waiting to bowl. It doesn't hurt that much, but if I try to use it for running on or even just standing, I get a shot of pain. I'll take a raincheck on that, old boy.

This does not affect the plan for Wednesday, by the way. We shall still be there, as planned.

One shall post the first list of location on the map currently:
France (Wine & Brandy)
Russia (Vodka)
Spain (Sambuca)
Mexico (Tequilla)
Ireland (Guinness)
Scotland (Whiskey)
Germany (Biers)
Japan (Sake)

One would also like to add the following two countries to the list:
Poland (Schnapps)
Italy (Amarillo, which is an almond wine, used in amaretti biscuits, amongst other things.)

No, you need a passport to enter Russia, as it is not a member of the EU. Few former 'Eastern Block' countries have the freedom
of movement laws, yet.

Well, being 16, since you can't actually buy any of the booze, wouldn't it be better if I took some of the lads over and loaded up the range rover and then drove back.

Slight missunderstanding, here, Manic. I meant we hop over into Russia and grab the Vodka. We'll smuggle you into places like Japan and Canada, no problems
