I emptied it so as you all don't come rushing round.
grass grows by the inches but dies by the feet. - 30 April 2010 16:1649761Very nice too Ian thank you. Where on earth did the name originate? Hardly sounds Scottish.Tell them that I came, and no one answered.
- 30 April 2010 16:2749768It came from an affliction the malt mixers used to get back in the lod days colin.
if they got it bad they walked around like they had a monkey sitting on their shoulder. Strange but true.
A peaty triple malt with a dash of water to bing out the taste and it's yummy.
when I first ordered it from the local off licence they thought I was pulling their leg and when they did finally get it, it cost me £20 and now it's gone up to £27, so now I wait till I go up north and the price is £19. Crazy innit.
grass grows by the inches but dies by the feet. - 30 April 2010 19:5949822I have to confess Ian, I`ve never been a whisky drinker, I don`t know why as there was always plenty in the house. My nan had a tot a day, and half a bottle when she came down on holiday. She died 5 years ago aged 106, and would have lived longer without the fall she had. The whisky must have had some effect I should imagine on that ripe old age. I`m a wine drinker myself, can`t drink much beer these days, though I enjoyed the pint at the White Horse the other day.Tell them that I came, and no one answered.
- 30 April 2010 20:4549838i cannot take beer nowadays, stick to the water of life, as known to our scottish friends.
funny you saying about your nan colin, a few years back a lady celebrated her centenary in a nursing home on the folkestone road, the staff said that she always insisted on a gin and tonic every evening before dinner.
maybe there is something in the music hall ditty "a bit of what you fancy does you good"? - 1 May 2010 15:2149905I have sampled a tot of this excellent triple malt in Ian's company and very nice it is too, I'll be putting in my order next time he goes 'up north'
