Evening folks, safely back at home with me slippers on after a wonderful trip the West Coast. Scotland is still in late winter mode but the snowdrops are bloomin’ and the odd crocus too. There has been little snow even on the mountains this year in stark contrast to our two previous full-Narnia winters. This is good for the trout fishing because the cormorants have been happily munching trout in the unfrozen lochs and not my beloved Perthshire rivers. So – lookin’ good! But it can all still go wrong I assure you and it usually does.
Id like to thank everyone who made my wonderful tour possible and I dearly look forward to trouble-ing your kettles again soon. The provision of afternoon tea in America is getting better and better. And the Renaissance in American Beer continues apace. From Caledonia to California, Oregon and Washington – a happy Scotsman salutes you !
