Thank god most of the ones I peed off are on the active BB forums or this could get tricky :hugesmile:

Job done - but don't tell simon.........he's trying to turn me!

Yay for my fellow Fifer :D

Is that the bestest yev got Lee?! Not too much in favour of old Ian :hugesmile:

Tsk!

We love Ian! We love Ian! We love Ian... everybody together now..

:elephant: We love Ian! We love Ian...

:spin:

We should perhaps get cheerleading pompoms and work out a routine.

Yeah!! I'd love that... as would Ian I'm sure :D

How are your cartwheels??

I'm liking the way this thread is going Lee - Karen is a bit of a hottie, can Livia come to your party?!

Yeah of course! The more the merrier Ian! As long as she's willing to partake in some strenuous happy dancing with a couple of mad Scotspeople..

Wait a sec... is she Scottish herself?

ohhhh Ian, I need you to name me some known Scottish Whiskey in Scotland we don't have in England but you have there. Cos they were really nice. Like a smokey flavour

Malt whiskey Joe?

Hmmm might've been. Just sorta asked for one I didn't know the same of lol Does that have like a smokey after taste? I know one I has was Highland Reserve but that just tasted normal, so wasn't that

Malt Whiskey isn't a brand..it's a type there's loads and loads of them though. Would you recognise the name if you heard it? If not you're going to have to come back and work your way through them all! :D

Anything from Islay will give you the smoke/peat/iodine hit Joe..........but a tad expensive - Lagavulin, Ardbeg, Caol Isla, Laphroig. Bowmore is about bottom of the list but available probably in Yorkie supermarkets. Port Ellen is the most expensive and what I collect (distillery closed) and my most expensive one is a 1971 worth a bit over a grand.

Tell me what you were drinking on your Scottish sojourn that you enjoyed and I can probably think of an equivalent from a different area like Highlands or Lowlands malts. Isle of Jura I think you'd probably like.

Whisky is one of my specialist subjects :hugesmile:

In fact Joe it wouldprobably have been an Islay malt if it had a smokey (peaty) taste..

You're just a woman - how would you know?! Said he being uber-sexist :joker:

Bunnahabhian (sp?) and Jura are the popular Islay malts in my pub Joe.. Either of them ring a bell?

Cheers, will have to check them out :D There was just something about that smokey after taste I loved, felt like it gave you a kick lol


And I drank a load of the local bitters as well. Can't really remember their names, although I did end up in the same pub Robbie Burns used to drink in :D

Jura is a seperate island - get yer map oot :hugesmile:

It was literally a load of bottles lined up and I just pointed at one lol I wish I had of given it more thought :(

Hahaha....

The Scottish way would have been to have a dram from each Joe :joker:

Haha, well I'm not made of money :tongue:

Now I know who to look for when I come into Next in Dumfi wee pal :xyxwave:

Och,it's the same bloody area. Same peaty taste!

Any of you two been here? The drive up to it was realllly nice as well

Good suggestion Lee - we'll break his liver down yet :hugesmile:

Yup Joe - I used to work in the Scottish Borders and lived in Galashiels and Selkirk at various points.

No, I haven't actually... I've never really visited the borders, only driven through them.

Incidentally, my friend saw Nessie a few weeks ago :D (I'm being serious)

How much had she had to drink? :tongue:

Lol.. he hadn't been drinking at all..The Nessie Heritage Centre have given him lifetime membership! He got a free Nessie Pen! His photos are going on the wall! plus the Inverness Courier want his story!
Hahahahaha.. It's really true.

If you knew this bloke, you would understand how funny this is! He was in the paper the week before for drunk driving for gods sake!

Random lol wish I'd gone there now haha Is there any chance you could post the photos?

I've not even seen the photos myself! Whatever it was was apparently big and scaley though. The bloke he was with said "you shoulda ****ing seen the size ay this hing.. it wiz the size ay a ****ing hoose min" :D

:joker: Sounds interesting! Always did like stuff like that. Myths and stuff

Only if you promise to wear a Claymores Cheerleader uniform:

Try Talisker, from the only distillery on Skye, its the dogs bollocks.

Good call Tel - that never entered my mind originally.

You're welcome.

You owe me a bottle of it then!!!

Usual address. and I would appreciate it next day delivery.

Could also try one of the Chivas specials, like one of the "Royal Salute"s. Used to get them for about £8 a bottle, I know some of the workers over in Kieth. Nice bottle in a bag, in the box.

No to many are banned
Lock threads and Warn is far better

Whilst you're at it Ian, I'll ahve a bottle of Smirnoff's finest :)
