Things I have enjoyed in England so far

[robinturner]

• long conversations with maggie_lucy
• being able to work undisturbed by anything more intrusive than birdsong
• strong ales with strange names (Hobgoblin, Speckled Hen etc.)
• Bushmills Single Malt
• stilton
• sitting in the garden
• quirky English television
• bilberry jam on crumpets
• fish and chips
• not having to stand on buses

I went to england a while ago and I definitely have to say that bushmills is fantastic.. I love the rye aftertaste.

No Bushmills in Turkey? Good lord man, how do you stand it?

Turkey has very few good whiskeys. A few decent scotches (Glenfiddich, Glenmorangie) and American wiskeys (Jack Daniels etc.). No Irish whatsoever. It's probably just as well, since imported licquor is very expensive (except for rotgut like VAT 69). There is a local whiskey, but you'd only use it for stripping paint.
