If you can't beat them...

Advert for a wee dram.

I am not sure if the Irish refer to a wee dram but it seems appropriate.  I have seen various drink related items in my time, ice buckets, bar mats etc, however I think this one takes the prize.

A sculpture of full size barrels made of iron.   They are advertising Jameson Black Barrel Whiskey.  Called Black Barrel because it is aged in twice charred first fill bourbon casks or "Black Barrels".

The last day of conference, a shame to have been inside during such great weather.  I took a walk at lunch time only to find the little point and shoot had flat batteries.   A wander round showed no nearby shops open selling batteries.  I asked reception in the hotel, no they didn't know of anywhere.  Then "How many do you need"?  Two!  Wait a moment I will have a look, into the office and out with two suitable batteries.   Well done that man!
