Summary
The fellows who drank whisky from a sou'wester.
When times were hard, a group of men from South Uist sailed to Glasgow to get food supplies. They took a cargo of salted fish with them. They sold the fish, and bought oatmeal and a cask of whisky. On the voyage home, they wished to drink some whisky but had no glasses. Instead, they used a sou'wester.
