OMG! Peaked far too early. Can I just cash out now and retire to my mink farm near Copenhagen?
You're peaking way too early, Doc. It took me 15 years to get one of my subs used. All posts were delivered by carrier pigeon in those days.
I always liked Chutney

Nice going, Doc. I'll stand in solidarity with Wren and admit that I'm partial to Sticky Fig and Plum & Apple myself. Thanks to Throngs for crunching the numbers on the Japanese supercomputer.
Nice going Doc - are you in possession of a locker. Asking for a friend.
Good stuff, Doc. You can certainly cash out if you agree to keep an eye on the NewsBiscuit ostrich farm in Malmö.
Topper-doffs and cravat ruffles to Throngs for supreme and ongoing abacus work.
There's going to be a delay in this month's results. Apparently the Donald has ordered a recount. Or I've just found that single malts and Microsoft keyboards don't mix. Blew said keyboard up on Saturday and waiting for the replacement to be delivered. Although I can use the PC in tablet mode manipulating the data without a trackpad and mouse buttons would be a real faff.
Normal service will be restored as soon as possible.
Sounds like a waste of whisky . . .
I'm curious, did the single malt directly damage the keyboard, or was the keyboard damaged in an accident after drinking too much single malt?
Dece, agreed.
VCG, strictly the former, the latter probably had a part in it. Basically sitting down with a refill my arm caught the arm of the chair. All seemed fine until next day using excel and suddenly strange characters started appearing, cursor keys worked in opposite directions and caps toggled on and off randomly.
So, I get to keep the crown for another day?
Hehehehe...
Or I've just found that single malts and Microsoft keyboards don't mix. Blew said keyboard up on Saturday and waiting for the replacement to be delivered.
That malt is part of an elaborate WOTM fraud. I advise Dom not to accept the result, whatever it is.
Throngsman: tough to type when all the characters are whis-keys?
Actually, I have a lovely image where the keys on the left of your keyboard are like little Outer Hebrides islands sitting in a sea of whisky.
How much have you had Steve?
We know what to get you for Xmas now Throngs anyway. A new keyboard.
You should turn it off & on again, using Ctrl-Malt-Delete
FAKE NOOZE!
...And Throngsman himself edges it by a cat's whiskies...
Scotch whisky doesn't like Microsoft keyboards. It prefers a Mac, or a Mc.
OK, thanks for the sympathy everybody! Good news is Microsoft got the replacement I ordered on Sunday to me by this morning while I was in work.
So...well done Doctor Chutney, what a month you've had. Wren kept you jogging but you kept up the pace. Some great subs again this month. All the FPs, NiBs and LAs are on the blog and, as usual, the tickers are listed below the leader board.

Wow! Some accolade. This is right up there with my 10 Yards swimming certificate. And I really thought I'd blown it in the Swimwear Round.
Is this where I have to thank everyone? Or cry? Or make some political point? Not sure what the form is so I'll just say a big thank you to throngsman for producing the alcohol soaked data, and quietly and modestly exit the stage, before yelling and punching the air.
I knew Chutney would be my downfall.
Congrats to the Doctor ... mug transferred from dominic to the chutney physician ...
Thanks to tm as always
Congratulations Dr Chutney, well deserved. And thank you once again to throngsman.
Congrats to all, esp Chutney, MD
Worth noting, that even though DavidH got more FPs than anyone else, I got more hat-tips than he did. Hah !
Maybe I need to polish my biro some more
Excellent contributions across the board, Doc. Particularly appreciated your multiverse one.
Hang on, if the US voting machines were all soaked in whisky Trump would have demanded a recount.
I declare myself the winner. Doc Chutney is a loser, his party are all losers, they want to steal this election mug
Etc
You're worried about a whisky soaked machine? I'm using a cast off NHS excel spreadsheet. Probably half the subs weren't counted.
Congrats on winning the virtual mug this month Doc. Thanks to Throngs for the mathematical convolutions. I don't know if it helps but here at O'Shaughnessy Towers, the staff are all equipped with keyboards that have a Whis-Key.
