Sorry to hear that John

Feel free to list your bottles on the forum or link to any you may list on ebay or wherever.

It wont seem it now but happy birthday.

Sorry to hear that John, at least if it is half expected you can prepare for it but there is nothing worse when you didnt expect it at all.

I will have a wee dram to toast your 25th tonight, hope you find something else soon.

Cheers

in the meanwhile open up a Bowmore museum in your house !

Happy Birthday for what its worth, hope the world seems brighter tomorrow

sorry to hear that John, hope you can find another job soon.

I would imagine it is a good time of year to list whisky on ebay with people perhaps looking for something a bit more special or collectable.

Very sorry to hear that John. At least now is a good time to sell some bottles, especially collectable ones. Hope you find something soon.

Sorry to hear about that John, i have been there a couple of times in the past. Is the Bowmore 26 an distillery bottling, the older Bowmores are usually very decent stuff, enjoy whats left of your birthday.

Sorry to hear about your job, going by your previous posts on here you will have some collection of Bowmore, hope you get a good price for it if you do have to part with it. Hope you enjoyed a good few on your birthday.

Hope you get something else soon John so you can hold on to the collection. Good luck with the job search.
