    That's down-right generous...I'd think that you'd charge this kilted rabble double just because you'd have to put up with them!

    (And you'd better double-lock that liquor cellar!)

    Best

    I'd be there in a flash but this year is "Wife and Daughter Go To Paris" year...hope that next year is "Mom and Dad Go To Scotland" year.

    [FONT=Trebuchet MS][I][COLOR=Navy]Madame, rarely will you meet a more prejudiced man nor one who tells himself he keeps his mind more open. But cannot that be because one part of our mind, that which we act with, becomes prejudiced through experience and still we keep another part completly open to observe and judge with?[/COLOR][/I]

    Well now, I may have to put Scotland on the vacation list for next year. I'll have to start researching it.

    Now I'm very happy (about the discount) and very depressed (about the whisky that I can no longer drink - at all).

    Depression: the feeling you get when you've acquired a taste for single malts, and are told by your physician that you can't touch them ever again.

    Now - if I'm ever told that I'm allergic to chocolate, all bets are off.

    Thumbs up

    ...well...u'll have to count on me for beginning of next august, at least for one night, as I'll be round Alba for the first 2 weeks. But I can't tell u yet which day or if it will be a single or double bed ( HOPELESSLY DOUBLE!!! ),...by the way, as I want to go for the Skye highland games on the 9th, and after that i wanted to spend a day hiking on the isle and another hiking as well in Loch Lommond, so maybe it will be for the 11th or 12th for one night before I go to Glasgow. I come back to Spain on the 14th. from there.

    I'll try to give u concrete dates as soon as I can make sure if I'll be alone or if I'll have with me a glaswegian lassie that I have to meet in Newcastle at the beginning of my trip up there... if she gets crazy and shares the way with me or not just depends on me :rolleyes:


    ¡Salud!

    time to start saving up for a trip!

    oh, does each room come with a muckle big clock? You know every room needs one.


    I noticed the fine print....you should have feared for the scotch well before you mentioned this deal....
