No offence. :-) I've never actually bought from the company, so I'm not making any direct comment on their products. Re. the Argyle/Argyll thing, I accept the historical variation - after all, Wiliam Shaikspeer spelled his own name about 24 different ways, it's said. But in today's language, it seems to me that one is right and one is wrong. And the "occassion" thing was the icing on the cake. But you're welcome to disagree with me - people often do! ;-)

No worries!
Jerry: point taken and understood. "Argyll" is the correct variant today, since that is the version used by the "powers-that-be".
Great discusssion, btw...
