Most serpently not! :eek: We also stayed at Oban x-years ago at the Corran house, in the Cellar was the Markie Dans Pub, over 100 single malts to try & so little time, it was here my tonsils wallowed in the uniqueness of Macallums "As we get it" (cask strength with bits in it! :D) I reckon Jockist Jihadis come here when they die. (or at least to get an idea of what paradise should be like, mind you there's probably a paucity in the Virgins department, but hey ho, you can't have it all). ;)

early sixties I did a couple of coach tours around Trossachs staying at Callander.
I always including a visit to the distilleries and would be given a bottle for taking the punters in.
The lads in the Irish job brough pochin back.
I have a bottle of Johhny Walker here from 1960 something square bottle still marked with 70% proof and imperial measure not centilitres.
Bottoms up Dave. Slangeva.

Poison bottles hey? And a horned skull?
She may think you're trying to tell her something!!;)

Re: Anyone know about bottles?
 

I am,I'm trying to tell her my neatly placed poison bottle collection would look better than her randomly placed slyvac rabbits that are all over the ruddy house ;)

Re: Anyone know about bottles?
 

Well,the answer to allowing my poison display in the house is a definitive "no" from Mrs E...so it looks like they are staying in the garage :(

Fill em with gin, that should change her mind.

Re: Anyone know about bottles?
 

If a new rabbit didn't sway her,Gin wouldn't work ;)
On a plus,she did allow my duttons brewery collection a (dark) place in the kitchen.

Gordon's always was her soft spot (till the rabbits) ;)

Re: Anyone know about bottles?
 

A lady of taste!

A touch of Gordons used to be very popular with the ladies.;)

With Tonic or Orange, of course!

Re: Anyone know about bottles?
 

You've got a good selection there 'explorer.
I wonder if they were somebody else's collection and similar to you his spouse wouldn't have them on display.
I'd would try to get advice from another collecter or bottle magazine.

Try it now mate & you'll be on the sex pest register with a restraining order thrown in for good measure. :D

Re: Anyone know about bottles?
 

Cheers G,I'm glad someone appreciates them (empty) ;),They all came from the same site so you never know.
It's only the bottles that are genuine,where the true value for me lays, the labels are from Google :D
I was thinking of giving them to the museum at the brewery visitors centre in Bburn when Mrs E or I have had enough of them.
