Season\'s Greetings:Scotland\'s OTHER national drink - D B Campbell - 12-23-2011
It occurs to me that RAT members unlucky enough not to live in Scotland may never have seen this excellent Christmas advert (for our other national drink): http://youtu.be/xfiqrkV_ZqI. Enjoy!

SALVETE OMNES!
Unlucky enough, you say.......How many degrees below zero are there right now?
By the way, I think I've seen Eileann Donan Castle in the advertising, went there last summer, no doubt it is a a lovely place. Then I understood why the roman legions never completed their conquest of Caledonia.
Health to all RAT members and enjoy these days.
