Things just aint the way they are supposed to be...

On Friday last week we had teachers day, it was a great day really and I am still eating toffees from one of the kids. The retaurant the school provided for the event was very good, the meal though no comparison to last nights repast in Monserrat was good, hot and tasty, and through out the event we were treated to music and songs by a duo on the stage. You have to think these guys are more used to performing at funerals though as they were dressed for one, and when not playing or singing the second artist sat bolt upright in the chair with his hands on his knees in a very military fashion. That said I have heard worse...









During teachers day events i saw this Cycle on display in the school grounds, now the question is .,. is it a bike, a moped or a motorbike, it is certainly one of the most well made systems I have seen but even though technologically it is state of the art would I bee seen on it... I think not...









My last thought for tonight and the reason for the title of this post is from one of the largest supermarket chains in South America and with stores through out the world called Carrefour. They are doing a special on Whisky at the moment from the Dalwhinnie Distillery I thought it was great that they went to the trouble of having a full size map with a greenish tartan background about 6 ft high and 3 ft wide showing where in Scotland the key points associated with the Distillery were..










Now you see coming from Scotland it just shows how BAD my geography is I was sure Edinburgh wasn't called Edimburgo and was a wee bit lower, and that Drumuir Castle, Speyside was just a tad further up, however Dalwhinnie is at least close though should be a bit more central! . The only real bonus to all this is of course it just shows how important England is to the South Americans, since Scotland is in their view UK!! I like the south Americans more all the time.

Have a great day and be confident more geography lessons curtosy of Latin American stores is unlikely.
