I like the bar, I think it's a great idea+++ and I like the little umbrellas, nice and compact.
I've never used alliexpress, looks very much like ebay.

Takes a bit of time to turn up but worth it.

Nope, arrived as fast as a UK second-class letter!
Only decision was which way up to mount the clips. They are pretty secure so I decided that opening down was easier for putting the umbrella in and taking it out.

Its shocking when post from another country is as quick as our own.

That looks good.

I'm still after an umbrella. lol

Did I miss the link to this one? I quite fancy that version too. Is it this one: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Multi-Purp...item3f2de05c8f ?

No, simpler one from same supplier.
Only got back from Tyndrum just now (via the long route including 6 ferries and many distilleries!) so being brief until I clear the backlog!

I'm assuming you got your distillery passport nicely stamped up then! :D

Oddly no, only one extra stamp after Oban, at Lagavulin. Was given a fair number of tasting glasses though (all free).
The only other distillery in the passport that we saw (but didn't go in) was Caol Ila, all the others we visited (plenty!) are nothing to do with Diageo and their "Classic Malts" marketing.
I now have photos of every distillery on Islay as well as those on Jura and Arran. Talisker (on Skye) we toured a couple of years ago.

On my best day I tried 10 different malts, all good ones, starting alongside my smoked mackerel at breakfast! :D

Ordered the OEM part and received it and the screws some months back.
Today I finally fitted it. Looks good with the Audi blagged umbrela.
Now what to do next from the list of "nice to haves". :D
Just landed another job, means I'll be in Oxford all day tomorrow with a 16 seater minibus.:(
