Autumn Glory - 15

After visiting Pluscarden Abbey on All Souls' Day (2 November 2007), I cycled back to Elgin Station and on my way visited Miltonduff Distillery. I was given a complimentary free dram of the 10 year old malt. It was very welcome - but nothing great!

Perverse and foolish oft I strayed,
But yet in love he sought me,
And on his shoulder gently laid,
And home, rejoicing, brought me.


No - I wasn't drunk, and I wasn't picked up by the Highland Police and taken back to a cell for the night!



I fondly remembered my former parish priest - Canon George Telford, who died on 6 November 1997. He was very fond of Scottish malt whisky. May he rest in peace, and rise in glory. Amen.
