Here for a meeting - honest !

I have spent the day on Islay with a full diary including visits to two Primary Schools ( with strong Burns themes, it being the Bard's birthday ) and , this evening, the Islay & Jura National Farmers Union branch AGM which was held in the great surroundings of the Bruichladdich Distillery Visitor Centre.

The backdrop for my speech and Q&A about CAP Reform and Goose Management ( amongst other things) was two pyramids , one of a large variety of rare whiskies and the other of the excellent Botanist Gin which I am sure made rather a surreal sight.
