The Legend of Whisky Galore

[gibbo]

I saw a short story on the telly last night about the The SS Politician that sank off the Scottish Island of Eriskay in 1941 with whiskey on board ... lots and lots of whiskey and lots and lots of money to apparently.

It was just one of those stories that i found interesting.
