Friday 26 October 2007 Up the glen, across Rannoch Moor, and through Crianlarich we go, on our way to
Glasgow. I've come to quite dislike the stretch of road along Loch Lomond and on to Erskine Bridge. We are in town by
early afternoon, and commence the task of cleaning out the car and hauling all of our junk up the stairs to our rooms so
that I can return the sturdy Verso to Europcar. The weather has turned wet again--we were incredibly fortunate with our
window for walking--and a light drizzle falls on me as I walk back to join the lads.
We are soon enough in the Pot Still, a pub that rivals the Bow Bar for the top spot on Mr Tattie Heid's Favorite
Scottish Pub list. As it happens, it's my birthday, and we are hoping some of our acquaintances from the whisky forums will
join us. Mr Nick Brown and Mr Ian Logan arrive; each has arranged to do business in town today, and I am very grateful for
their presence. It is otherwise a very quiet evening, and my near-perfect record for boring parties is not threatened.
