Notes:"Dramster is my contribution to the English language. I have never liked the term ‘beaker’ for my small drinking vessels, so I have taken ‘dram’, which is a small measure of liquid and created the term ‘dramster’ as a container for a small measure of liquid. My own preference has the connection “I’ll ha’e another wee dram laddie”, but it applies to whatever is the drink of choice." (David Clayton, The Sheil Collection) David Clayton arrived in Australia from the United Kingdom in 1970.
