Well today is a somewhat different day to yesterday...this is VERY MUCH TYPICAL of having your own hotel, coffee shop and now new house bar business....much to do and no one else to do things but yourself?!*

Today we finally got round to finishing off the bar area...along with my first mate on this ship Mr RAY! The man done good and we are now set up ready for the start of the Highlands Drinking Season (in case you don't know where in the callander this season falls...it can start the day you roll into the Craigerne and then finish the day you roll out*!)

I reckon we now have one of the coolest places to go for drinks in the Highlands...the only donwside is actually an upside...you have to eat to drink. But all food including the House Nachos are "yummily scrummily", so you can have drinks and eats in the new coolio house bar or (now Spring has sprung) in the gardens amongst the stunning scenery...have a dram by the garden fire or the chimnea....(you lite these yourselves)

All we need to do now is get on top of the MUSIC?!*....our collection is somewhat lacking so if you feel you can contribute then get along here with a cd or two...move it, move it, move it!!! (I feel my few jazz cd's are possibly wearing so thin they are about to be thrown in a bin...by others here...bleeding philistine beggers!!!)

If you fancy a drink in the Highalnds...but not at "Brig O Doon"you can find us in Newtonmore, where Scotland's East meets West and just off the A9.

Come see....NIIIIICE
