Expensive whisky
Got Mr Quar a bottle of posh single malt whisky last Christmas. It came in a nice tin and cost £250.

He was tickled pink but swore he'd NEVER open it and would 'put it down' for years and years until it had triplequadrupled in value.

Halfway through April the temptation got to him. As he took the lid off, the room filled with the scent of Christmas pudding.
I was grudgingly allowed a tiny taste of it. Absolutely beautiful - totally smooth.

Worth every penny for the week or so that it lasted, and especially when he let his whisky-connoisseur mate swoon over it. Best present ever.

You'd like our regular local tastings then, £10 a head for a short lecture and all the posh whisky you can drink.
I happily cough up for Mr Quar and his pal and run them to and from the venue every couple of months. After the first savage hangover they learned not to jump at the host's invitation to help themselves to the opened bottles!

I ordered a dram of a rather expensive malt on my birthday .
The barman double-checked with me that the price was correct (£25). I told him it was. He said that would explain why he hadn't sold a drop of the stuff in the three years he had been working there. He then asked if he could watch me drink it. I'm sure he was thinking I was a right prick; that and the fact it would take him four hours on minimum wage to pay for what I polished off in a few short minutes.
