Highlander Friending Meme

[ithildin]

Instead of the regularly scheduled mostly weekly Highlander episode discussion, I'm going to do something else Highlander related. In talking with Pat this morning, I realized I'd never participated/seen a Highlander friending meme. Obviously, there was only one option!

Below the cut, you'll find the nicely formatted questions in a table, so all you have to do is copy and paste it into the comments and supply your answers. You only need to reply to the questions you want to. Hopefully, we'll all meet some new people, or get to know people we've seen around in other people's comments a little better.

Please do spread the link for the meme around if you'd be so kind. The more, the merrier! We may be a small old classic fandom, but we can run with the biggest of the them!

OOOHHH can I tag along on that Scotland tour!!

Sure!

There's a 'cruise' I so want to do. It's limited to 10 people, and you get to go on distillery tours. In between stops, you sail up and down rivers and stuff, and the meals are gourmet with single malt to go with it. Most of it from the distillery you just visited or are about to visit.

It sounds so cool!

That, and there's a distillery that you paid a fee of I think $500, and they give you an indepth distillery weekend tour where you make a case of your own single malt, which is then put down for a decade or two, then mailed it to you. Oh, I so wanted to do that...

[sigh] I need to re-up my passport... :)
