Charles Edward's liquer.

Today I received an unexpected and very kind gift from two of my supervisors, Jane and Peter. It is a glass beautifully etched with Jacobite sentiment. It is a wonderful thing, beneath a picture of the Prince it says "I will go daringly". These words not only encourage me in my studies, they indulge my Jacobite geekiness. The glass injects fun into

It's perfect for you!

[hermiston]

It is, I'm surprised I never bought one for me before. The start of a collection perhaps?

[funkyplaid]

Hahaha! Marvelous!

Go daringly into the bathroom after overimbibing, milord.

;)

[hermiston]

That's not what I meant by Over the water!

What a thoughtful and useful gift.

[hermiston]

Yes it is. I have been doing well for lovely gifts recently, particularly the type that one drinks from ;-)

If it hadn't just turned warm, I'd crack open that Scapa I bought before leaving Aberdeen. I had been saving for a special occasion, but 'life' be good enough, eh?

[hermiston]

Ooh lovely Scapa. Dare I say it? Scapa and ice on a hot day sounds like a treat.

It was a bit cooler this evening. I went with Bowmore. I love, love love the smoky stuff. I'll need to get some more Ardbeg on me next trip that way.

Ardbeg is mt favourite. Sadly it is not permitted to ship whisky to the States, otherwise I'd send some your way. Strangely, malt is cheaper where you are than where I am so you may be best keeping your eyes open for a bottle.
