  1. Happy St Andrew's Day to all. This statue of him in his little-known dragon slayer mode is in the war memorial garden next to Kelso Abbey. It is actually on the male dragon current of the Holy Axis, which runs between the Farne Islands and Iona. #StAndrew #Dragons #HolyAxis #Dowsing

  2. I continued my side trip to St. Andrews from Dundee, Scotland to day with a visit to a museum, an aquarium and lots of wandering around it was great. You can read about it here: journeys.klebanoff.com/2024/09

  4. 30th of November, St Andrew's Day 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

    Not only that but the birthday of my sister and late mother. Raising a glass to all three.

    My mother was born and brought up just off Pleasance, in the shadow of Salisbury Crags close to where the Holyrood Distillery is now situated. So this would seem appropriate!

    Sweet fruity notes along with darker dried fruit, vanilla and chocolate. Lovely, soft creamy smooth mouthful with all sorts of flavours bouncing around my tongue - spicy cinnamon, orange peel, rum and raisin. Warm fruity, baking spice finish and lingering toffee. Complex for what is a very young whisky. I think it's delicious.

    Slàinte Mhaith.

  6. Join me tonight at 7pm (GMT) for my Random Scottish History show on the @IndyLiveStream platforms, where we'll be talking about #StAndrew & His Day - it being the season, &c. 😉
