Thu 9th April
Happy non wedding day. Kirsty and I were supposed to be tying the knot today.
Thought I’d start the day with a Posh full breakfast. Basically a stack of poached egg, on black pudding, on potato scone with a dollop of beans. Goooood times.
Following this we did our 6k walk all the way round the lady Mary’s loop with ruby, really starting to enjoy the walk and ruby especially loves it.
Whisky whisky whisky. Decided a wee while ago that on my wedding day, I would gather my best mates together and tan a bottle of posh whisky - I had been saving a bottle of the glenturret 30 year old for exactly this reason. that as this was the day I was supposed to become a husband, I decided to finish the bottle off and share the experience with some of my mates. By sending them a photo of it. Tough chuff guys, it was gorgeous (at £450 a bottle I should hope so!). Spoke with gran, mum and grace who were also celebrating our non wedding - using FaceTime they took me round the table that they had decorated in wedding style which centred a fabulous cake.
then onto dinner -
starter: Scallops n poached eggs
Main: Steak and dauphinois - I’ve never made dauphinois before and these were awesome! Ask me in five days time how to make em and I’ll probably have forgotten.
finished the evening with a tasting of glenturret 30, Arran Sherry cask and finally the amazing glenturret grace gow single cask.
