I shall raise me tankard to this merry occasion! Aye, I'll quaff to that, mayhaps with a wee bit o' Scottish spirit and a glint in me eye!

Thank you Gentlemen, very much appreciated.

Tonight we drink, tomorrow I'll have my man get the brasso out to polish the gongs (and our boots in the event of any unfortunate 'incidents')

Huzzah!
