Back from the Highland Lodge
I just got back from our Highland Lodge having had a great time Lady Patricia and me.
We did the Porsche car club tasting on Saturday night. This was a Fantastic event…BTW 50 classic Porsche’s from across the whole of Britain and some from the continent of Europe, was a wonderful sight to see……must have been tons of money in these beautiful cars!!!
I introduced a whole new audience to the Wild Scotsman Brand, also Golden cask 1984 Glengarioch, and John McDougall’s brand new Vatted Islay Malt!!
On Sunday we went down to the Loch side, and saw a superb exhibition of Falconry. These birds of prey are just magnificent creatures and to see them at work is “different class”.
Then we had a BBQ and burgers of course —- Even the Wild Scotsman himself would have loved these burgers!!!!
Then I went back to the lodge and watched the Monaco Grand Prix, and I noticed that a Scotsman, Dario Franchitti from Bathgate, just 14 miles west of Edinburgh (near to where the W S’man’s family originated in Linlithgow) driving for the Andretti RG team had won the Indianapolis “500″, only the second Scotsman to have done so. The only other Scot, to have achieved this feat was the one and only Late Great Jim Clark in 1965, and who lived and worked on his Dad’s farm only a few miles from where I am, in the gorgeous Scottish Borders (With England) writing this posting.
You know some of you guys over there in the US should come to visit me & LP here in Scotland and you will have a great time.
Rent our lodge and you will literally be “In Heaven” in the Perthshire Highlands of this, the BEST small Country in The World.
Anyway I will write a whole lot more in the next few months/years as we all build up a world wide relationship .
Cheers
Sir John
