Four weeks on Islay have passed like a flash and Hampshire, which once seemed like the countryside, feels positively chaotic by comparison.
Driving through familiar roads towards home I couldn't help but feel sorry myself.
However, with the front door open I soon smiled. Awaiting was a small package containing a letter from Laphroaig and two thoughtful gifts by way of compensating my annoyance last week - see below for details.
The good news is that visitors to the distillery will soon enjoy the same discount as 'Friends', which makes perfect sense. (I think this was something they were already planning to do, nothing to do with me!)
So while I enjoy my bottle of 25yr Old this evening I shall raise a glass to Vicky Stevens for her kind letter and gifts, and I urge you all to make the visit.
