« on: June 10, 2013, 05:45:39 am »
I was at my local charity shop..this morning...and found these....Not antiques by a long shot...but,dirt cheap...@  £1 each... ;D..the other pic is Dunotter Castle....which is 30 miles from where we stay.....its at a place called Stonehaven..on the east coast of Scotland....
I make no excuses,and no apologies....but i like a good Malt,

Mac Beth was a long time past? Pink Floyd was longer. Who cares, I love them both. Could have been yesterday. I'll see you on the dark side of the moon. Bigwull I wish I could share a Mojito with you. In case you do not know, its rum, mint, lime. simple syrup and seltzer. Mostly rum though. None of that cider though. Let me ask you Scotty, what do you think about Sunshine Superman or Season of the Witch? Am I the only Donovan fan on this side of the pond?

They call me "Mellow Yellow". ;D Wullie I wish. It's been weddings, parties, obligations. I need down time. I took my 87 year mother in law to a wedding yesterday. She lives 45 min. from me and the wedding was another 50 min. from there. I started off with a mimosa when I got there, lol. By the afternoon I moved to a vodka tonic. It was a long day. ;D ;D And I have a lot of patience. :)
