   The only reason I asked is because there is a Celtic event in Lochac
sometime in the near future and, while I'm not the autocrat (not in the
right geographic region)  I have been asked to find out about various
things like the adressing of the Haggis and other odd things.  I read that
Athol Brose can be substituted for plain Whisky, and what I knew sounded
much more fun.

Thanks for all your help
