Change is Good
A quick follow-up look at Blackwood Distillers web site shows that the children have been taken off; Riannon has been dumped, and the reference to bond sales and whisky in 2006 is gone.
Being the modest chap that he is, Ian Buxton likely won't want to take credit for this; but these stories certainly had something to do with it, no?

You tagged that "humor" and put a little smiley after the "power of the press" comment but, quite seriously, it is a classic example of people being held accountable by public scrutiny.

Well Ian, I hope you can bear the lack of a Christmas card with great fortitude :-)
