I spotted a bottle of wine in M & S in Dunfermline and bought it for my brother, who is a Glasgow Rangers (Gers) supporter, because it just says 'Gers' on the label. He loved it, I hope it tastes ok.
I got two bottles of champagne from the same M & S, on offer at half price (£15) - 'Abel Charlot'.

We are in Scotland for the first third of Mrs R's birthday celebrations. Had a nice lunch at the Garvock House Hotel although, due to a large funeral lunch in one of the other rooms, service was slow and it took ages. However, everything was excellent and you appreciate the north / south divide when the bill comes (£250 for 9 people - I left another £25 in cash as a tip). Stage two will be a September lunch at Thackeray's in T. Wells for another 9 people but it will be a lot more than double the Scottish one. Stage three is Paris at the end of September (just the two of us) bubbl!!!

Gers...
....I thought they were Mongolian felt tents, like yurts! Does this wine leave one with a furry tongue, I wonder?

That probably depends on how many bottles you drink.
