Well Bob, perhaps we should check the British Dictionary to see if perhaps 
they may have sent us Teachers from the bottom of the class that taught the 
Scotts, Irish and Amuricuns the improper spelling of such an International 
Treasue.

Does that mean they won't sell us any if we go to Scotland, ( not even a wee 
dram ?).

( If you can't spell it you can't drink it )

Cheers,

Tom Wiggins
Gone to the cupboard to check the spelling on all my bottles now.
