Was you a flag waver Ian? As you know, I was a sparker but served on a small ship also, therefore having to do the crossover course.

A Matelot = member of Royal Navy. A Bombhead = Weapon Loader specialty of FAA. FAA = Fleet Air Arm. A WAFU = Wet And Flipping Useless (or something similar).

For me it has to be a pint of beer or 12

No, I think you'll find is Matelot's and that they've used that for rather longer than the RAF regiment has been in existence ;-)

The one that's in my hand.

Otherwise, if you're buying, I'll have a beer

Not that easy!
It's a tough question because it depends how the mood takes you.

If I'm going out with the guys from work I'd mostly be drinking beer, but I rarely keep any in the house. I always have plenty of wine in, at least a dozen bottles to choose from, but probably only drink one a week. If I just fancy a quick drink in the evening before bed then it will be a single malt whisky - there's always a bottle in the house.

So which is my favourite?

Beer is okay, but I'm not all that fussy about what I drink, so not that . . .
I like my wine and know a bit about it and probably drink more of that at home than anything, but still maybe not . . .
But the whisky I really enjoy and save it as a special treat. And even though I'd happily spend upto £20 for a good bottle of wine I wouldn't go beyond that, but would spend £50 - £100 on a really good malt. So whisky it is!

I was lucky enough to pick up a bottle of 1975-bottled Cherrywood Glenfid in Dubai this week; so smooth it is nectar and no trace of a thick head in the morning!
