I do a lot of knife-porning on Instagram. Last month I stumbled across Blok Knives. and ordered a whole set, and I’m impressed. They’re carbon steel. Good handles. Not lazy. Knives become infinitely more interesting when you’re into cooking meat.

I recently rode an electric bike for the first time, a Haibike XDuro FatSix, and it’s fucking genius — the perfect balance between some form of exercise and artificial assistance. They’re quiet, and if you reach a fence, you can chuck your bike over, unlike a motorbike.

Right now I’m into Mortlach 16 [single-malt]. It’s fucking good. I have a discerning palate, and I quite like a sweeter whisky like this. I’m a big Scotch drinker. It gets very expensive very quickly, but the truth is you don’t drink shit whisky if you’ve got any self-respect.
