Today being Robert Burns day, I might open a new single malt. Anything for the Scots.

John Barleycorn* was a hero bold,
Of noble enterprise;
For if you do but taste his blood,
‘Twill make your courage rise.

‘Twill make a man forget his woe;
‘Twill heighten all his joy;
‘Twill make the widow’s heart to sing,
Tho’ the tear were in her eye.’

*Whiskey

Hale be your heart! Hale be your fiddle!
Lang may your elbuck jink and diddle,
To cheer you through the weary widdle
O this wild warld.
Until you on a crummock driddle,
A grey haired carl.

Happy everyone. This is the unveiling of the Burns stature in Vancouver 1928, with Ramsay MacDonald doing the honours. If the statue looks familiar it's because it is - a replica of George Lawson's in
