Last time Silkie was on my boat he brought a bottle of 75% proof rum that had been on special offer in his local co-op. Return the facvour for me, please ;-)

A couple of bottles of this should sort out the trews from the kilts...
You would na take cools to newcastle would ye?
And maybe a ball of string for navigating back to the boat ?

You might want to take something that will counteract the effects of Lorne Sausage. I'd suggest Kaolin and Morphine.

you do know the correct way to drink this, is with ice cold apple juice. It is a really good vodka. The stem of grass is a piece of the grass that the last surviving wild herds of European Bison graze on. Perhaps thats why the vodka is the colour of Bison piss. /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif

This is the stuff you're after; it combines the best of our glorious shared heritages.
I should take a couple of spare camera batteries as well, because Neil is sure to pull the old "Ooops-I-forgot-to-put-the-charger-on" routine.

I had thought it might be unseemly for me to take part in this thread but can't let a slight on Lorne sausage go unremarked, it being something of a staple on the good ship Silkie.
While I'm here then, I had also thought that Full Circle was a whisky connoisseur with a highly developed palate (wouldn't have invited him otherwise) so I'm a bit surprised to find him seeking help on this front.
Surely "bring something that you like to drink" is clear enough?

irn-bru, god, what awful stuff! Like the Tizer I used to have as a kid but without the good memories. I was fishing for trout in Scotland once, dropped in on the ghillie mid afternoon to present my compliments, and found him, his wife, most of their neighbours, and one or two passing fishermen p***ed out of their heads on a combination of whisky bought at the local post office and dispensed from large plastic bottles, and Irn-bru

So which auld dosser's gonna mention the 'Lanliq and Bucki'?
Or is there someone out there, still half-alive and able to read, who'll confess his preference for 'Ra Boatl o'Eldorado in a Broon Poke'....
Serious stuff!

I relish the thought of Lorne sausage, and would sincerely hope that it will be available over the breakfast skillet.
a litre of Loch Dhu
You see, the thing is, that I wanted someone to judge whether the Rev Silkie was likely to be a soak of epic proportion or someone who imbibes on a quality basis, hence the request for both quality and quantity.
As no one has indicated anything other than a gentlemanly stride, I propose to bring....
...a litre of 10 year old Loch Dhu, the Black Whisky.
This ought to slake both thirst and pallet. Should also encourage a little debate as it is a Speyside, but not in the common ilk. I dont suppose they drink a lot of the stuff from the other side of Loch Ness....
