Bit more info of whereabouts? (the Scottish Borders is a pretty large area)
Thanks for that recommendation. I have often transited from Wooler to CD, but try to break my journey in the Moffat area so that I don't arrive at an inappropriate time at our friend's home. 'The Old Stables' at Beattock is now on my list as a stopover. Never mind the food, what's the beer like?
When we stayed I didn’t drink at all, and now have acquired a taste for whiskey.Thanks for that recommendation.

malt? is that like Horlicks?I have acquired taste for malt...
But my wallet hates it
No it tastes a lot better, but if you drink enough it has the same effect
I love Horlicks as a night cap
Sounds like a post that should be on the Ah, Hamish, Dougal? Tribute to Barry Cryer Thread, alongside the 'Derelict = pleasurable experience in Ireland' entry; assuming of course, that what my mother warned me against in my teens proved to be correct ... Still waiting to find out, but, at age 68, it's purely out of academic interest now ...
Running oot o beer fast Wully, been to busy to brew. Having to get a couple of kegs from one of the breweries I do work for as Liam is coming home with mates from uni to watch the start of the 6 nations next weekend. Have just cut several ton of rounds from the beech tree so they can split and stack that on Sunday, nae free dinners here.Sams bar near lauder cheap as chips. Just spent two nights at Creif Hydro they know how to get it out of you could have had a month away in the van for the same. Walking like I’ve got a squeaky toy up my arse this morning. How much dose a spa day for two woman cost I’ll tell you four hours for me in a fancy whisky bar mucho denneros.
Give meg a shout jeff she stays in that area
Cheers Gordon
