Keep on running:

This is great.

A bloke in Holland, sets his camera up on a tripod.

Puts the camera on 2 second delay auto-timer.

Presses the shutter, then runs like the clappers to see how far he can get before the shutter fires.

Barmy, brilliant, blimey!

(Found via Russell's essential delicious feed.)

Addendum, my pal Frasr from Coffee Morn and Whitespace, explored this though too earlier this year.

I mentioned the above to him and he pointed me to his 'Legging-It' shots on his flickr pages.

Just  little reminder to big me of ongoing weight gain and body fat %age.

AArrgh!

Sheep Dip and Pig's Nose whisky tasting:

1758948475_d41cec70d6

Alex and Jane Nicol,  my clients from the Spencerfield Spirit company, came along to the Whitespace boardroom on Thursday evening to give a tutored tasting of their whisky brands; Sheep Dip and Pig's Nose.

And what a convivial, educational and rewarding session it was.

Jamie came along, as did Rig, Nev, and a bloke who'd been doing a focus group at whitespace, who we invited in afterwards. (Alex did you get that chap's name?)

Anyhow, Alex took us through the history, provenance and credentials of Sheep Dip and Pigs Nose, and interestingly, when we got to actually tasting the elixirs, introduced some interesting, palate tasting food sensations to see how they, 'sat' with the whiskies.

Including, hot and cold smoked salmon plus some wonderful smoked Mussels, (all courtesy of Alex and Jane's son who works for Loch Fyne.)

We even enjoyed some of Jane's extraordinary Spencerfield Christmas cake with the Sheep Dip and Pigs Nose.

Moist, delicious, and very Christmassy, you can find the age-old family recipe here.

Alex also took us through the complexities of wood finishes, gave us a teasing insight into the actual whiskies that make up the blends, (rather like the Coca-Cola recipe, he's sworn to secrecy on some aspects of the constitution of Sheep Dip.)

We finished off with a discussion about online marketing for brands and indeed an exploration of our own forays into blogs, social media and particularly our experiences on FaceBook.

Everyone agreed it was a cracking session, more are planned, so if you'd like to come along to the next one and taste some wonderfully smooth scotch whisky, please get in touch and we'll arrange another.

204.5/31. Oh dear. Just stepped on the scales.

And stepped off rather quickly.

Something must be done.

And now.

And how.

Note to self; 'Eating and Drinking holidays in Italy have some serious drawbacks.'
