[SOC] Tasty Beverages....

MMMMMMM..... Single Malt Scotch.........

One of the good things to come out of my 2 year residence in G-Land was an 
appreciation of the finer beverages made "north of the wall".  Use to take 
weekend trips up north to some of the smaller towns to enjoy the local pubs 
and beverages as well.  Of course being 23 and single, there were other 
attractions as well <grin>.
