6 Merkister Maids, sat on the settee, k-i-s-s-i-n-g.

Anyway, yeah, nice ties ST. there's something about the Merk that I really like, and I have a few in my box for a rainy day. Same with the Norski Lad. I've never set the world on fire with either though. Maybe it's a geography thing Anyone done well on any of this style, south of Inverness?
