Me and my family was in Wales this year, and we'd actually been talking about wanting to go to Scotland next year perhaps. I'm not sure we'll be able to save up enough money, but if we do I'm sure well visit your guesthouse and I'll wear a kilt 
Maybe my old man will as well, or he might be too envious.
We just shared the opening drops of my first whisky I've bought for myself. A 12 year-old Bunnahabhain. Very nice indeed!
