    24th of June 700th Anniversary Battle of Bannockburn event

    The Caledonian will have an event on the 24th of June for the 700th Battle of Bannockburn. I will be going as will Nathan there will be Highland Dancers as well as other entertainment. Though this is on a Tuesday it is not a Tennent's Tartan Tuesday as we are trying to keep those to once a month. I hope to see some of you there.

    Glen Livet anyone?

    Donna from the Caledonian informed me that the Glenlivet Ambassador will be at the pub for a Complimentary tasting this Tuesday at 6pm and asked me to let you know. It is first come basis so make sure to make a reservation. I'll probably miss the whisky because I'm coming from work in Ajax and 6 is cutting it pretty close but I might get lucky! There will be Highland dancers as well!

    I called and reserved a table for 4 for 6pm that way someone might get the complimentary tasting.

    Glen has some. I'm sure he'll post them when he gets a second. Although I don't think that one is actually a "rule" per se. ;)

    Some photos from the night
    Waiting for the whisky


    Nathan enjoying a double cask Aberlour that was part of the complimentary tasting.


    Frank the Glenlivet representative educating the masses on whisky and the battle of Bannockburn




    It was a great night there were highland dancers and a singer, with Frank educating us all on whisky it was just a wonderful evening. The Caledonian is a wonderful pub. I was dressed much like Nathan, though it was such a muggy night that I had to change to a t-shirt, Donna gave me a got fiddich? shirt It's good to be a regular I guess
