We owe you guys at The Moorings much! Keep up the brilliant work.
Without a shadow of a doubt !!!.

Even if your out of pocket it must be great knowing you have supplied Aberdeen for years with great entertainment and and extensive and fairly cheap selection of beer.

Baltika for me !

FYI - That's precisely 4.761904762% of the period that the bar has existed. Hardly an ice age is it?
