  1. Personally, my favourite from Islay (and overall) is Lagavulin 16yo, and has been for years.  I set a company bar bill record at Gleneagles Hotel on Friday 29th May 2015, drinking that very stuff, with the first at about 11:10am (I tried ordering one about half an hour earlier, but, damn those licensing laws, the coffee was okay). 

    The barman offered me alternative whiskies (priced up to about £120 a nip IIRC), but I'm a faithful chap.  For anyone who remembers what happened the following day, that was a pretty good weekend, all considered.

    I agree that facing east is always best and especially in these circumstances. 

    Nothing ever to be gained by facing west. 

    Nothing but Donald Trump to the west and that old (er) chap Biden. 😷

    But surely, from North Korea, the West is to the South and the East?

    So, Danny Devine has been in the highlands for a week or so.

    Was in aviemore not so long ago, and was seen out and about in Inverness today apparently.

    Reckon he’s coming back? As much as I reckon it would be wiser fielding the Under 8s ahead of him

    Yes, spotted in Starbucks in the last hour with Aaron Doran.  I wonder, does CaleyTennis know anything about this?

    It was a very blatant and inexplicable error. Not sure I would describe it as 'grave' though. A grave error is one that might result in death or injury. Football, as important as it is, is after all only a game.

    Only if you're using your very own definitions.  https://www.collinsdictionary.com/dictionary/english/grave defines "grave" as "very serious, important and worrying".

    Given the potential effect of such an error on the mental wellbeing of someone unjustly accused in such a manner, it would seem considerably more than "only a game" to them, and may indeed result in death or injury.

    I wasn't convinced about this from a "practicality" perspective...i.e. it can seem like there's already more than enough time taken up doing the announcements in English during the short spell between fans arriving in the ground and kick-off without having to do them all twice...however, having been ably assisted by a young man named Daniel from the IRA yesterday, I'm of a mind that it brings nothing negative to the task whatsoever.  In fact, I thoroughly enjoyed showing someone what's involved with being a matchday announcer, he really seemed to enjoy it and deserves huge kudos as it can be quite nerve racking to speak publicly (even when hidden away in a box).

    I don't think it's necessarily going to bring more people through the gate, but if it helps foster a friendship with even a small part of the community and get the club a little publicity then I don't see the harm.

    There is little doubt that the club have a lot of work to do when it comes to engaging with the wider fanbase/community, however we should try and encourage the club to do more to engage with more people...and not to do less just because what's being done doesn't involve us.

    Is dòcha gu bheil barrachd ri chosnadh le bhith a ’brosnachadh ceangal IRA.  Is dòcha gun tòisich thu ga bhrosnachadh ann am bàraichean Boston MA?

    Now we are being linked with Ousmane Fane a French midfielder of Oldham by an Instagram user named Caleyhq, who also says Coll is being linked with County ?

    That's Fané, pronounced Fanny.  I would suggest that nobody searches "Caleyhq" as all the results seem to be Fané.  I didn't search "CaleyTennis".

    He wasn't when he came on - they have just now updated it.

    2-1 now.

    May need to keep that up our sleeve in case we need to claim the match :lol:

    I know it doesn't actually answer the question, but @AyrUnitedFC tweeted this at 6:49 tonight:
