Apology
Hello,
Just a quick apology to the group. I just found this group yesterday and responded in a few threads. I have just noticed that some of those threads are quite old. In fact I am astounded to find that I am just now reading a thread from 2005. That is astounding post retention. Anyhow, just wanted to apologise if I've bumped some dead threads and also to say that I am enjoying the information here. Keep up the good work, folks. Oh, and Happy St. David's Day! (I'm Welsh, now living in Canada). Ciao. -- Simon Procter |

Welcome to North America. As far as post retention, if you are working off of Google Groups, they archive back to forever.

Iechyd da boyo ....
Well, that explains it. I was wondering how these appeared. Anyway, Simon, in which bit of Canada are you. Am from Wales-East :-) and have visited North America, incl. Toronto, a lot. OT: Have you ever tried Penderyn Whisky? Discovered it in Tesco about 15 months ago... DAS To send an e-mail directly replace "spam" with "schmetterling" --- "Bill Putney" > wrote in message ...

Dori,
Hi! Well, I'm originally from Swansea but lived in Newport for a while. During that time I worked in Cardiff then Risca but travelled all over Gwent. Now I live way out west in Alberta. Haven't tried nor heard of Penderyn whisky. Is it a blend or a single malt? Simon. "Dori A Schmetterling" > wrote in message ... > Iechyd da boyo .... > > Well, that explains it.

Welcome to Canada, Simon. My dad, now deceased, spent his retirement
years in Connah's Quay, Deeside. He had many great qualities and was a true "MOPAR or no-car" kind of guy.

Single malt.
http://www.welsh-whisky.co.uk/index.html Worth a try for the rarity value, but I found I could get better Scotch for same money or less.

Well, appreciate the welcome Paul, but I've been here 19 years so I probably
don't qualify as a "newbie" any longer. Can't say I ever went to Connah's Quay. As a South Walian I was not particularly welcome in the North...LOL "Paul M.
