Another Cryptic Question

Help again please.

We then went to a place with a Loch which is not Whisky.

It's a place in Scotland somewhere between Oban and Ardrossan. I think it maybe CAMPBELTOWN as there an old song about the Campbeltown Loch and wishing it was whisky - I'm not 100% sure though.

Anyone got any better ideas?

Thanks in advance

I fully agree with Campbeltown

The song was made popular by Andy Stewart and is:

Chorus:
Campbeltown Loch I wish you were whiskey,
Campbeltown Loch och-aye!
Campbeltown Loch I wish you were whiskey,
I would drink you dry.

Now Campbeltown Loch is a beautiful place,
But the price of the whiskey is grim.
How nice it would be if the whiskey was free
And the Loch was filled up to the brim.

I'd buy a yacht with the money I've got
And I'd anchor it out in the bay.
If I wanted a sip I'd go in for a dip
I'd be swimmin' by night and by day.

We'd have a gathering of the clans
They'd come from near and far
I can see them grin as they're wading in
And shouting "Slainte mhor!".

But what if the boat should overturn
And drowned in the Loch was I?
You'd hear me shout, you'd hear me call out
"What a wonderful way to die !"

But what's this I see, ochone for me
It's a vision to make your blood freeze.
It's the police afloat in a dirty big boat
And they're shouting: "Time, gentlemen, please!"

It's on a horse website I go on which is more about horse chit chat and one of the members is doing this quiz.

Most of the questions are general knowledge/crossword type but a couple may need horse background.

It's over 60 questions - I can forward it by email if you want?
