BelgianBoy Posted October 15, 2009 Report Share Posted October 15, 2009 very well done indeed. did they not just closed a factory in Scotland and laid off 900 people ? BB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CTO Posted October 16, 2009 Report Share Posted October 16, 2009 BB I read that too - seems it's no owned by a large multinational - so much for the family taking it into the 21st century which I thought I heard in the script. Many petitions to keep the factory - CEO said NO I prefer 100 Pipers - there is occasionally a good single malt in The Esplanade basement booze shop - 750 baht - good value Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
