Manning up

I’ve been blogging about money quite a few times, if I remember correctly. What I didn’t tell so far is that I’ve been overspending in a rather ridiculous way the last year. It’s not that I cannot pay my bills anymore, but I don’t like the idea that I can’t even stick to a self-set limit.

This means: I suck. I should correct my mistakes and man up.

To counteract the overspending and free up some money for other purchases, home improvement, holidaying with the family and such, I’ve decided to sell some bottles. So far, this is the list. I might decide to add some others but not as of yet.

Gezien ik me het afgelopen jaar een budget gesteld heb, en er nu, in augustus al RUIM overheen ben heb ik besloten wat dingen op te gaan ruimen. Hieronder de lijst. Afleveren op Maltstock is uiteraard geen probleem.

  • Ardbeg 11yo, Adelphi, #1981, 57.9%, € 80
  • GlenDronach 12yo, OB, +/- 2004, 40%, € 30
  • Glenmorangie 11yo, SMWS, 125.23, 57.4%, € 100
  • Bladnoch 6yo, 20cl, Distillery Only, Bourbon matured, 57.3%, € 25
  • Caol Ila, 14yo, 1993, Blackadder Raw Cask, 55.7%, € 75
  • Ardmore 12yo, Douglas of Drumlanrig, 46%, Whisky Live 2008, € 50
  • Bunnahabhain 8yo, G&M Reserve, Peated, 59.7%, 2000-2009, € 45
  • Kilkerran 5yo, Work in Progress 1, 46%, € 40
  • Kilkerran 6yo, Work in Progress 2, 46%, € 35
  • Kilkerran 5yo, Springbank Open Day 2009, 45.8%, € 125
  • Longrow 10yo, 100 Proof, +/- 2007, € 45
  • Hazelburn 8yo, Springbank Society, 55.7%, € 125
  • Springbank 9yo, Marsala Wood, 58%, € 85
  • Springbank 18yo, paarse doos, 46%, € 125
  • Glenmorangie Artisan Cask, 10yo, 46%, € 50
  • Bonnie Clyde 5yo Blended whisky, 40%, btld. +/- 1980, € 30

For the ones going to Maltstock, I’m of course able to bring stuff there if you want to get out of shipping and such.
