    We'll meet again for sure...

    I also had a great day...I had to rush, because I had a lunch appointment with my mum. Lunch in a busy restaurant and some shopping afterwards...scored a nice sweater and a bottle of Ardbeg :grin:

    My mother has a nice sense of humor...when we entered the liquor store...someone asked what we where looking for...my mother replied: "have a wild guess". ;)
