Thanks to Yinster at post 6, there will only be 5 more prizes on offer. 10th, 12th, 14th, 17th and 21st of December
Not worth checking or posting for any other dates :)

Mixture of prizes and offers. Looks as if a prize is every other day. Day 1 was an offer, Day 2, which is still current until midnight 03/12 is a prize and Day 3 is an offer. Day 4 (tomorrow) should be a prize.

Day 2 (open until 03/12 midnight) 70cl Glengoyne 10 year old whisky

What was the original meaning of the name Glengoyne?

My suggested answer is:
Glen of the Wild Geese
see here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glengoyne_distillery

I am not 100% sure of the answer and am open to alternative suggestions :)

    Agree - from their website - The distillery, which takes its name from "Glen Guin" or Glen of the Wild Geese, (http://www.glengoyne.com/our-distillery/history/)
    Don't put it down, put it away - thanks Valli

    Just says:

    "Competition Answer from Day Two


    GLENGOYNE means THE GLEN OF THE GEESE. Our grounds are filled with geese twice yearly as they migrate. Glengoyne is a welcome resting place on their long flights.
    The lucky winner has been notified by Glengoyne"

    I watched this live and voted for which one would end up being the limited edition single cask malt (yours for a mere £350 a bottle). For anyone genuinelly interested in Whisky it's well worth a watch. Very insightful about the Whisky making process and about different flavours and tastes.
    Thanks to everyone for posting the comps!
