You mean you don't do that at your supermarkets, we have plenty of people with cider bottles and sherry round here who swear by it! Laughing

After a bit of finding my way round things - I'm in a position at last to leave a few comments!
Yes a 'convention' in Scarborough - or North Yorks would be a great idea.
ll can get trains/public transport - and for me anyway, I could take in a couple of real ales as well as the whiskies!
I might even start blubbering about the delights of Scottish footy!
There Johnny - lets get things sorted!
Cheers!

I love it when a plan comes together! Laughing

If we say mid October before it gets to cool but good weather for drinking and we may have a couple more takers by then.

Don't worry you don't get out of it that easy, we'll plan a date around everyone who wants to go.

Any idea which disitilleries or part of Scotland you're going to yet?

There's a little off licence next to the Granby pub in Whitby, that has a few minatures from Gordon and MacPhail hanging around shelves, apparently it's old stock, plus they used to have a few 700ml bottles of interest at one time.

Don't knock Whitby for a holiday, that's where the wife and I go, live in Hull that's heaven! Laughing Plus lots of great pubs :veuzelol:

hi johnny
Rolling Eyes certainly not knocking whitby, they do a mean chicken sarnie in the granby, whitby is only 30 miles from us and we go quite a lot and have had holidays thier mant a time.
bothams for cream cakes though.
glenkinchie would not be a bad place for a convention, they have a nice lounge and i bet the accommodation around is good

I think its just getting everyone together first and then anyone who still likes each other can make further plans!!

I know that when people do get together alot of the people would probably go to Scotland but would want to stay over because of the distance, unfortnately that means alot more organisation than a one day meet.

Edinburghs Whisky museum on the Royal Mile has an excellent range of whiskies so that could be another place to all go eventually. Been a couple of times and I could of sat going through the whisky menu all day Very Happy
