I've quite enjoyed a few Jack and Jills over the years, never really been bothered with the columbians, always thought it was over rated...although I do remember one night thinking it was great, must've been good quality stuff compared to the usual crap.

I'm not a great music fan. I like football, darts, the pub and gambling small stakes
I also like making my good lady happy because when she's happy my life is so much better and easier

That's it Jimmy. It's not bad compared to the other stuff in Scotland, but it's never going to win any Charlie of the year awards.
