Cruel Ken, cruel. I know you dislike the Poms, but some of us aren't actually English, you know. ?

You do realise that you've basically opened up a potentially huge market for Four Pillars Gin in the UK, and we can't get our hands on the stuff?

I believe that the ancestry is a mix of Scottish, Welsh and some pommy-ness tossed in (Cornwall, I believe). with a touch of French if you go way back. Actually, apparently Capt Cook was a distant rellie.
