In Scotland

Ok a few things for the cigar smoker in Scotland.

1 dont smoke and drink Irn Bru. This is not like Dr Pepper at all. Makes a great stick taste like pure sheeps ***.
2 chocolate milk is not the same as in the USA.
3 smaller ring gauges seem to be what people go for over here. Don't know why, but they do.

I will post picks once I get back for anyone who wants to see.

Miss my dog, yard, and bed.

    SOOOO jealous Ross!!! Spent a couple weeks over there on a training exercise while I was in the military, and I am convinced that if God ever stepped foot on this planet, it MUST have been in Scotland! Most beautiful place I have ever been, bar none. And definitely post pics when you get back!!!

    How does one go about getting on that training exercise?! The only thing I can foresee not being PERFECT in Scotland are the damn ugly women...

    No golf, no pipes. Pics will be up next weekend sometime. And yes this is the promise land!

    Had some great single malts, and cigars. Also it hasn't done anything but sunshine.

    I was fortunate enough to be an air base ground defense instructor for the USAF at one point in my career. The RAF sent a batch of students to each course we had thru the year - and once a year, during our down time, we would send a cadre of instructors over there to go thru their course as an information exchange sort of thing. Yeah, I know - TOUGH DUTY!!! :-D

    As for the women, there are winners & runners-up everywhere. The Scottish lasses all looked better after many, many... MANY pints. LOL By the way, are you back from your Poland trip yet bro?

    Ross, see if you cant bring back some gorse (sp?) for some of your favorite BOTL, to show them that mother nature does indeed have a sense of humor... even in someplace as beautiful as Scotland... :-D

    You're lucky for the sunshine too - in my time over there I got about an hour and a half of sun in the entire week and a half. Did get to see my first double rainbow tho!

    What's different in the chocolate milk?
  • rossdavey2rossdavey2 Posts: 979
    A lot of single malt has been recycled lets just say that. Chocolate milk tastes more like pudding and not milk. Its just a diffrence

    These are some good tips :)... I was going to tell you choco milk is generally different in all of Europe lol... In any case - come back sooner so we can start our mail exchanges ;)... Any nice sticks/stores there?
