Not really.

It's all very twee Sir Walter Scott inspired Tartanry, TBH.

My Dad was a Dewer's man since before I was conceived...I've no doubt I was 50% under the influence at conception...how ever immaculate that may have been!
Had a promotional wall hanging of this one as a lad.

That reinforces my point about Tartanry! It's as bad as beer swilling, thigh slapping, Lederhosen wearing Bavarians!
