Ah, Pastis... best drink out there. Nearly finished my last bottle - hope I get another for Christmas!

End of year lowlight if I don't...

Highlights:
The hot pasty delivered by the young entrepreneur as I got back to the dinghy park from the last race of the Finn Nationals at Falmouth.

The best pasty I ever had came from.............................Devon, Ethel Braithwate's little shop in Lynton (http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?hl=en&ll=51.22934,-3.833666&spn=0.000752,0.00202&t=h&z=20&layer=c&cbll=51.22934,-3.833666&panoid=lHFVIuaqMr3P-iiIN9AfZg&cbp=12,107.2,,0,0).

A beautiful steak and Stilton job it was too.

My sailing highlight, having a ding dong battle with a flying fifteen in a pursuit race while sailing a 420 with an even more novice crew than me with no trapeze and no spinnaker and holding them at bay for most of the race until I f**ked up the last mark rounding.
Successfully confusing ambition with ability since 1980.

And prompt;y lost by them too Wink Yes I've been to that shop. We were camping at Hulme End and having a barbecue so I cycled over to Bakewell to get some puddings. Never got to taste even a crumb though as by the time I'd finished cooking the barbecue the gannets had descended and scoffed everything  Exclamation

Is this some sort of brandy and babycham substitute?

Ah Pastis - the drink that gets you coming and going.
I recall getting very squiffy on Ricard some years ago and going to bed (foot on floor to stop the spins).  Woke up the following morning feeling 100% - and then drank some water which reactivated the Ricard and kept me down for the day Confused
