Jim: bang on correct again, I wrote the song a couple of years ago after reading some info on the MacFarlane family history (my Mother was MacFarlene). Not sure of the gentlemans name in Pictou you are talking about but I doubt if he has it. Not being a performer is a disadvantage when it comes to getting your songs circulated.
Spot: Not sure if Pipers carry Woodford Reserve, but they do carry Glenora's Cape Breton Rare. Distilled just a caber toss away from Margaree!!
cheers
