Slàinte!
The subject of my partly Scots ancestry came up recently, when Chrysanthemum blipped a tartan shop. When I said I was descended from the Elliott clan of Campbelltown, I learned that Campbelltown was once home to over 30 distilleries and was asked if I had inherited a taste for 'the water of life'.
I certainly have, and I mentioned that there were a few bottles of single malts on my shelf and that I might blip them at a future date, so here is my spirits shelf. It includes quite a few whiskies and whiskeys.
A recent bout of man 'flu has cost me my voice so I might be off now for some medicinal Jack Daniel's Original Recipe Tennessee Honey (barely visible at the far end of the shelf).
