He met some of the local movers and shakers and made it back in one piece, despite his gruelling 4 hour ordeal with his hardwood whisky boxes at customs on the way in. Not only that, he even managed to get his hands on some photographs to prove to the taxman that it was indeed a genuine business trip and he didn’t just go to Disneyland.
Top marks to Moji and Ewan for pulling out all the stops for the event. Red carpet, piper, champagne (and whisky of course), kilts, tuxedo clad caterers, valet parking, a little rope thing to keep out gatecrashers – the full VIP treatment. Kenny did a grand job representing the zenith of Scottish hardwood craft and design – of course coming from Fairlie he’s well used to brushing shoulders with judges, congressmen, mayors and the like…just go down the Mudhook on a Friday night and you’ll get all that.
A few of the photos below, note some of the Fairlie Furniture pieces – the big oak boardroom table for the whisky company and the curved nautical elm wardrobe are amongst them.
