Stamp of the Day: Longship on the Scottish coast

They really knew how to build beautiful ships, those vikings! This stamp reminds me of Asian art, with mountains in a distance and foggy mornings.

Sitting here with a glass of Laphroaig quarter cask, I understand what the vikings were looking for there... ;)

I bet the quality of scotch has improved in the last 1000 years, don't you think? Have you ever had mead?

Definitely, since it was hard come by back then. The vikings searched in vain... I've never had mead but I hear it is still made in Finland.
