More of a Speyside malt man myself but I know exactly what you mean. Always a decent collection in my house, shame the Mrs can't stand the smell of it. Then again, at least I don't have to share it with her 

[Speedy1959]

There is good in every negative lloydjames.
My best wishes to you.

I'll ask all for best time for meet up .
andre is a top guy only problem was when we met last year. it was during a rally in belgium during my 50th birthday celebrations he took a run to meet me.
he's  a really good guy but i was a little hung over to say the least.
was ace to meet him tho.

Wasn't a problem (to me  ) that you were hung over. Was great to meet with you, Emma, and the other blokes. Would have been nice to go for a ride together, but in hindsight it was good we didn't as my 14 was running only on 3 cylinders. Being broiled in the sun wasn't that pleasurable in a sober state. Must have been worse being hungover. Now I would be happy for a little broiling session after this long wet dark season.

I would love to see you and Emma again. And getting to know some of the mates here in person would be grant. And seeing Scotland would be a bonus.

Gotta watch out for the wild Haggis up north Andre, they hunt in packs up there & have been known to bring down a man!

Sound more dangerous when ingesting their "parts".

When I lived in Switzerland I was told to be careful with certain sheep as people had been mauled or killed by them. Maybe these were imported from Scotland? I don't know but certainly good advice.

[Speedy1959]

More dangerous than the sheep is the infamous Bagpipe spider !!
It lurks in the Trossachs and screams like a banshee in the mating season !!

[Doc_Rossi46]

you need a run up here and visit a few places .
i drive past most of the spey side distilleries with work so know the ones most folk don't know about.

As a white van man I to have been to the speyside distilleries. Unfortunately not to taste the stuff. But to pick up cases and deliver them all over the UK. for sheer the beauty and excellent wildlife, oh and the occasional fighter jet  The Macallan Distillery was the best.   Does anyone think that it would be a mistake to do the whisky trail on our bikes??

As Crocodile Dundee would say:
That's not a dangerous animal, this is a dangerous animal 🕷😄

You've never encountered a swarm of Scottish midgies then 

[VladTepes]

Scottish midges smidges.


crane fly aka Midge found in NZ


We have some half decent sized mozzies too...



These are pictures of typical aussies once they venture outside to do gardening.




Fortunately on the days pictured, there was no mosquito problem... 


Yes we ARE tougher than you.

[KiwiCol]

You lost a bit of weight Mick?    or did the mozzies suck it out of ya?
