Scottish solution to a natural habit.
As I think we all know in this grim time of Covid 19, that the natural habit of touching our faces with our hands is best avoided and is a habit difficult to break. The Scottish solution?
Have a glass of best malt in each hand.

And, of course, alcohol kills all known germs. That’s my story anyway.

That's a good formula for a well balanced man.

Sage advise Jock....My brother-in-law used to say when asked if he'd like a second drink; "You can't fly on just one wing!". You've taken it up a notch by having them both at once.

I don't know, Jock, but I personally find it more efficient to have a glass in one hand and the bottle in the other.
And remember, high concentrations of alcohol are a natural antiseptic. May we all practice our best antisepsis in these times of covid.

Just to insert a slight note of seriousness , The CDC recommends a minimum of 60% ethanol, and most of our tipples and only 40%.

You’d be looking for cask strength then....
