Off list - Making possibly the best bad joke in the world!



This is me and my friend from university, Bex, holding up a Finnish flag, after we had "Finnished" our exams....yes, i know it's painful, however this was one of the most joyous pun discoveries i think i will ever have in my life.

We were sitting by the lake at uni and we saw a group of people sitting with a load of swedish flags dotted around them. I mistook them for finnish flags and asked Bex what she supposed was going on? She proposed perhaps some sort of Finnish social and then i said perhaps they had "Finnish"ed their exams....and then we laughed far too hard for far too long about it!

Subsequently i decided to surprise bex after her final exam with a finnish flag and a bottle of Prosecco to celebrate the end of university, our wonderfully corny joke and our friendship - Good times!

Off List - Gin Distillery Tour

I went to this with a good friend and fellow gin connoisseur - a small underground gin bar and distillery near to St Pauls. They greeted us with a gin and tonic (of course) made with their signature London dry gin. They then took us around the back to the stills and explained the history of gin, the word coming from Jenever, a juniper based liquor that was the first traceable version of gin. Apparently, going back to the 1600s, soldiers were allowed certain rations of alcohol per day: English, a gallon of beer, dutch a litre of jenever etc. As the Dutch were allowed a  whole litre of highly alcoholic Jenever, the English marveled at their bravery in battle, which is where the term "Dutch Courage" originates from - Who knew? After the history lesson we tried another 2 london drys, an Old Tom (Sweetened Gin, goes into Tom Collins) and Sloe Gin. Made me remember why i love Sloe Gin so much!

July 2017 OK, so i think when i wrote this one down, i meant that i would actually fly the helicopter as a pilot, but, this is exceedingly difficult and perhaps something to do in the future. For now, i have part done this, by flying as a passenger with my parents.
