I rarely indulge, but will keep this in mind during flu season: Apparently the Russians visiting Wales for some soccer tournament or another (sorry, soccer fans) were told “to drink a lot of Welsh whisky as a form of disinfection” against swine flu.

Is there swine flu in Wales, one wonders, or is it just as good an excuse as any?

After all, must one have a reason for indulging on 30 year old Glenfiddich?

No, I don’t feel like posting on politics, American or Latin American, right now. Thanks for asking.
