    Hello, Lynn.
    THAT huge match tips? How long are the matches, about an arm's length?!

    I have the feeling that this is a room at the University, Maurice.
    I LOVE single malt Scotch, and from the blended sorts I love Chivas. I'm afraid I'm pretty low on booze at home (in Berlin), I only have about half a bottle of Glenfiddich, a couple years old and starting to taste stale (is this normal?), a few drops left out of a Four Roses bourbon (which is good), and a bottle of 50 years old, brown Armagnac. The latter is a poem, especially after a heavy meal.

    Hello GM,

    The MaCallan 1926 is a 60 year old malt and is very very expensive. But the oldest is the Lalique, a 64 years old variety, found here..

    http://www.themacallan.com/home.aspx

    There is a MaCallan 50 year old, the MaCallan 1952, and there are various others ranging from 50-60 years old.

    Should you happen to be of a generous disposition, I tend to favour the 1926, although the new Lalique, "Cire Perdue" 64 year old looks a goodie.
    The Lalique decanter, complete with the drops of pure gold, will be auctioned on the 15th November in New York I believe. Just let them know if you are interested by registering your bid, and Christmas will indeed be a happy one...for me..lol

    Lynn, just as an afterthought, when someone is suddenly grabbed, the muscles tense up I believe, which means the gripping of the cachous and non release would be natural, in my opinion.

    best wishes

    Phil

    Hmmm. Interesting. Spacious apartment they have. Too bad they can't afford furniture.

    I agree with Maria, though. Where the heck do you get a fifty-year-old single malt? The best I can usually find 'round where I live is about 30. I assume that a 50 costs about a buck a drop.

    Hello Maria. Yes, they look like that. Those were match tips.

    No, we can't be certain where they met.

    Cheers.

    50 year old single malt?? Where???
    Interesting, but a little bit too tame a reenactment, in my humble opinion. (But I liked the Victorian hat, and your wife looks like a very nice person, Lynn.)
    Might I ask 2 questions? Were the cachous original? Do they really look black and huge like that? And that little piece of dialogue with Liz seeking for the door, we don't have any evidence about it, do we?
