as the title goes have a happy day ...and remember to have a dram of whisky the night

Happy St. Andrews Day!

I saw that on my calendar today and must profess my American ignorance (but want to learn). I'm sure he is the patron saint of Scotland, maybe? I just know of the famous golf course there and my da belongs to it's American counterpart here (oldest in America).

Some info, schu?

As an Anglo-Scot I definitely would celbrate St Andrew's day if I had any money.

Have a great St Andrews Day. I had never heard of it before. I just read a bit on the internet. I'm not Scottish, but will have a drink (not a wiskey drinker).

I'm gonna let you off with the spelling of Whisky ...Whisky is Scottish and Whiskey is Irish

You are far too kind Schu, are you feeling well today.
I tell you what, I drink enough whiskeee (hehe) for the both of us here. And by the way, Happy St. Andrews... even if I am a bit late with it.

and believe me I drank enough whisky for both of us here on Tuesday

Hey, thanks for the info, Schu! I had some wine for you. I know it's not traditional but there was no whiskey aboot!

It's interesting they say that it can be more celebrated by ex-patriots. It's a bit like that here for St. Patricks. We tend to REALLY pull out the stops when it's much "quieter" holiday in Ireland.

CHEERS and HERE'S to ST. ANDREW!!!

cheers Kares
