  1. I'll steal a shot although I probably don't deserve it.
  2. Was supposed to be going to Islay this Friday. I’ve got an old mate in his 80s who used to do all the driving when we went hillwalking so I was treating him to a weekend to pay him back. Rebooked for September so fingers crossed. So... the sideboard had 2 Laphroaigs, 1 Bowmore, 1 Irish 12y.o, various Isle of Lewis things, some poteen , 2 Arran. And the bargain of the year... we were in the Faroe Islands last summer and they had a litre of Ardbeg 10 for about €36 which must have been a mistake. Anyway, I had just finished a Talisker at the weekend and opened a Highland Park so that’s the choice...
  3. That's a good idea but no Speysides in the cupboard just now, have to make do with something more west coast You worked us hard there. Sláinte.
  4. So it's Craigellachie with Macallan behind? Funny I was there before but couldn't confirm it on the street view, never realised you were so far away.
  5. Keep them coming. Fleetwood, Hibs 2006, Hampden 2004.
  6. I should have got up earlier.
  7. My first impression was around Tomatin but that was nae use. I'll have another look in the morning though I take it that's a distillery...
  8. @caley100 Is that the Caley Inn?
  9. That was my first game at the stadium, missed the first one the week before v Albion Rovers who scored the first ever goal before the equaliser came from... yes, Iain Stewart.
  10. I’d love to see Stewartie lobbing Hutchison at the away end, the first away derby that season when we won 3-1. I doubt if it was on telly though.
  11. The first one? Motherwell in the Cup. The other is a page from a programme when we played at Pittodrie.
  12. I was just passing, took that photo from the road sometime later Can’t remember any cars when I stayed there, we were walking/hitching. I was too young to drive
  13. It’s Allean House near Pitlochry. It’s been the Queens’s View Hotel and now a private house, but I stayed there in 1972 when it was Strathtummel Youth Hostel.
  14. South of Drumochter...
  15. Not near Sneck. IBM gets around, or used to, so that's why I put this one up
