laphroaig land lease pictures, please

[madmacs]

I got my lease certificate in the mail several weeks ago. Entitles me to a dram a year for letting Laphroaig use my property!
There was a clause in the lease stating that I could not add land by aquiring more bottles of the great nectar.

Does it prevent you from pooling your lease? Might get enough to have a "timeshare" plot... Lets see 365 plots... That'd be about 19ft x 19ft... And everyone can enjoy it for a day a year...

I'm waiting for the pics! I believe that your plot is right next to mine, and I love to see the view!

Hate to rain on your parade, but most real estate law provides that you own the 'air space' above and between the boundaries of your land. In your case you would be building in someone else's air space. It is possible to purchase 'air space rights', for example construction over a rail line in places like New York and Chicago.

Blast! There go all my carefully constructed plans

I bought a bottle of Laphroaig 10-year-old this weekend, and the purchase "entitles" me to a lifetime lease on a square foot of the distillery's riparian property on the Isle of Islay. Have you been there, and do you have pictures of "my" property? I'd like to see "my" acreage, to help me decide what kind of house to build on it.

Here's your plot.

Well done, Chris.

Here's your plot.

Yep. That's mine, alright. Right under that barrel.

I just downloaded and printed my lease, and it says that I may not "cut peat, farm sheep or extract minerals from the plot". And that's just exactly what I had wanted to do: move to Scotland, dig a peat pit, fill it with miniature sheep and sink an oil well.
Oh, well, I guess I still have to go to work tomorrow.

I think I see my 12" plot over there on the left side a bit...

I'm thinking of putting in a pool on mine.

Very nice photo of the land. I love the Laphroig also.

I have my cCertificate for ONE SQUARE FOOT of Islay also. Being a Risk Manager in an Insurance Agency I asked our Customer Service Rep to make sure I had Liability coverage on the "Land in Scotland" and sent her the Certificate She didn't know what to do with it. I guess I have an uncovered Liability Exposure over there...

Does that mean that the owner of the barrel is using YOUR air rights? That has to be worth at least a second dram a year.
