Didn't like the Osmonds and one wife is more than enough thanks very much.
Beer is very weak in Utah as well, not the religion for me at all.

I'm pleased to report the one in our town has been closed for a few years now. I'm hoping it becomes a Weatherspoons.

Just testing you !
No to be honest a ''typo'' !
But would you like a Whisky Distillery to be built on that site ?
Still even if there was, dont suppose there would be any free samples knocking around !
I used to work at a massive bottling plant for one of the biggest wine and spirits companies in the world. At Christmas we used to get a gift of 3 bottles from the firm.I often chose J@B Whisky, Croft Cream Sherry and a bottle of Le Piat D'or , they were all drink brands the company owned.
Wonderful firm that I would have stayed on till I retired but the EU changed their rules e.g source of origin, so our massive bottling plant and local distribution centre was forced to close down in 1990 with many jobs lost. same happened to many other bottling plants in the Uk who were bottling wines and spirits imported from abroad. It used to come in big tankers, it was pumped into massive tanks, checked, filtered and bottled in the UK.
Happy memories, we had a wonderful restaurant and social club and I ran the table tennis section, we had 9 teams in the local Harlow league and I played in one of the teams. Hard to adapt to working for another firm after you have worked for a top company like that.

I worked at the I.D.V factory, known locally as ''Gilbeys''
Perhaps you played in that League before I got involved in I guess from around 1984 to when we were shut down in 1990.
As the club secretary, I got sponsorship from the various brand managers so the teams took the names of the brands, the best products had the most spare money for sponsoring, Thus we had teams called Gilbey Ginners, Smirnoff, Malibu, Croft, Piat D'or are a few I can remember !
Lastly, what team did you play for in the Harlow League ? Like a lot of sports, hardly any teams play now that most of the factories and sports clubs shut down. I think there were around 7 divisions when we packed up, now down to just one last time I asked a few years ago.
Have you tried Batts at Old Harlow ? https://battstabletennisclub.wixsite.com/batts/about-us
Also I tried the great Pardon community centre around 2012 when I retired. They had a hall next to the community centre where on certain days they had pensioners table tennis amongst other things.

Scotch Whisky is made from malted barley and generally has a fuller, heavier taste than many other whiskies.
Irish Whiskey, by contrast, comes from unmalted barley and is renowned for its smooth flavour and hints of vanilla.
