Hi all
Among the maniacs, we've had a discussion this past day on the virtual
'Barnard Belt'. It all started as a bit of a joke, but got more
(semi-)serious as time went on. Just as Scotland has Munros to climb, it
has Barnards to visit. Talking distilleries of course. So visiting a
distillery gets you a notch on your Barnard Belt. Wistfully roaming the
distillery ground without actually visiting gets you a 'wist' in your
Barnard Belt. Visiting distilleries outside Scotland gets you a pouch on
your belt for each country you've visited at least one distillery in
(pouches are coloured in a pattern matching the national flags of
course). Suggestion was also to make it mandatory to touch the still for
a notch from July 1 2007 onwards (before that time, joining an official
tour will suffice).
So .... who's got the most notches, wists and pouches in his/her belt?
How's your Barnard Belt looking relative to the rest of malt-dom? We're
sort of half-thinking of a web-page on MM where the number of notches,
wists and pouches is listed for everyone who has contributed to MM with
at least one e-pistle.
