    Thumbs up

    I'll be hoisting one for The Bruce, my 21st great-grandfather (through my Innes / Fraser / Stewart line) & my 23rd great-grandfather (through my Innes / Douglas / Stewart line).

    p.s. ~ yeah, there were some "kissing-cousins" further back in the ol' family tree!

    I bought a bottle of Speyburn 10 today on my way home from work. My first dram from this bottle tonight will be a toast to King Robert. A very distant relative as I am a Stewart clan member.
