    Whisky galore????

    Whisky warehouse roofs collapse under weight of snow and ice - Press & Journal=

    There's been some amount of snow up here, there's been a lot of roofs collapsed, these being the most interesting!

    It's snowing heavy here in Lossiemouth tonight and can only lead to more issues, thank god I'm not on call this weekend!

    It is not really surprising as we do not build for extreme weather.
    YOU ONLY NEED TWO TOOLS IN LIFE - WD-40 AND DUCT TAPE. IF IT DOESN'T MOVE AND SHOULD, USE THE WD-40. IF IT SHOULDN'T MOVE AND DOES, USE THE DUCT TAPE

    Unfortunately Malcolmburn warehouses have a huge fence around the perimiters and no way to get to the sheds! Also security guards on the gates.
    I had to go into the site to fix a van they used once, huge site, 120 acres! At night it looks like a town from a distance due to the amount of street lights! Some of these sheds have been up since the seventies, surprising they've collapsed now really.

    Oh well, ho hum,,,,

    I'll just have to put up with my Glenfiddich for now!

    Good grief, I hope there wasn't any ice in that whisky!
