I think too much the night before might have been a factor. Off topic a bit but got hold of a proper ex army wool blanket at last Mary.So when swmbo gets out of hospital we will have a go at that shirt at long last.

Aye, well, my birth certificate and my passport both declare it, so it must be true. :rolleyes:
Actually there are a lot of nice bits in Hamilton, and a lot more nice places around it. I only stay the other side of the bridge now.

West Lothian..........lots of bings there too, aren't there ? :p


cheers,

Nope, you'll get full agreement with me over that one.........remember Burnbank ? well Glen Fiddich beats it hands down :(
I didn't know, I just bought a bottle of 12yo malt to wet the new quaich and share around the fire...........even my whisky drinking younger son won't touch it. :eek:

I'm thinking about trying it for sloe whisky this year just to use it up.

cheers,
M
