Indeed simon but I believe you can't have any alcohol in there now? Just a coffee? They used to let you take your own.

As far as I know you are spot on. I was last there just before the refurb, and they could only serve alcohol at an event. You could no longer take your own booze, but coffee and chilled water were still on tap. If you really must have a drink, a discrete tug on a hipflask is unlikely to be frowned upon, unless you really are just trying to overtly swing round the 'rules'!!

Got back to Aberdeen Monday evening, weather a pleasant 21oC, had a fish & chip supper at the airport bar & then popped out for a C.C. & very nice it was too, bit young but plenty of flav.

I thought only submariners were discrete

It was very nice and light to start, with cocoa/chocolatey flavours and a woody finish, all the time getting richer & smoother and finishing with a punch at the end. Not sure I'd fork out for a box but will definitely enjoy another one in the not too distant future.

Nice to know, think I may get a couple sent to try out.

Well worth it and I'll be interested to know your thoughts.

My experience on my last visit too - was quite a shock to the system (I had to be revived with smelling salts). Such a shame, but a coffee with a drop of whisky from a hip flask should see us alcoholics through (just a shame we can't wander up from Berry's with a nice bottle any more).

One of my hips flasks would be a step too far... Its a whopper for cold shootin days!

Thank you. I only wish I'd picked some different pictures to send Nic...
