Join Friends of Laphroaig and go to Islay

I am posting this to just see if enough folk would be interested. Basicly in every tube of Laphroaig is a card tellingyou that if you join the Friends of Laphroaig club you can claim a plot of land for which you can claim a dram of Laphroaig each year as your rent. They also supply the right attire, on loan, for you to I dentify your plot. A pair of size 12 wellies, headgear against low flying geese, a hip flask of laphroaig whisky, a life belt and an anchor to stop you blowing away out to sea on the the breezier days. Basicly go to www.laphroaig.com/join and have your bottle ready (you will need the barcode). If enough folk are up for it, it could be a laugh. If not I am just going to have to work harder at convincing more of my friends that single malts are ace. The date I have attached means nothing this is just to see if I am the only one that wants to do this or not.

Very much a definitely maybe at the moment

given the vagueness of the actual plan. But maybe a long weekend, or something? Drive up on the Thursday, tour Friday, mess about Saturday, back on Sunday?

Would we be camping? Camping is ace.

I did think about camping but that might put a few off

but then i guess not everyone has to camp if that is the way it goes.

I can probably supply three

or possibly four barcodes for people who don't own Laphraoig (shame on you!) as I work in a pub that sells lots. Let me know.

Surely the bottles from bottle to bottle are the same?

I'm not barcode literate

Laphroaig tastes like biting a chunk out of a peat bog.

Islay malts are not my favourite :P

Sounds like a nice trip though

You are wrong

and I have the proof! Islay malts rock. I'm a member of the Friends. Apparently you can fly to Islay too...

(signs up)(and has friend who would probably come)
