The Cambridge dictionary has the definition of "mull" as "to heat wine or beer with added sugar and spices". So that would be reasonable.
Frankly I have no idea what it means in the "of kintyre" context. It's not come up until now.

That didn't work. It's a bit of Scotland owned by Paul McCartney.

Which is lovely, but leaves me no wiser as to what a mull is.
-
Mull as a geographical term is most commonly found in southwest Scotland, where it is often applied to headlands or promontories, and, often more specifically, for the tip of that promontory or peninsula.[citation needed]
The term mull derives from Scottish Gaelic: maol "bald, bare, baldness, bareness".[1][2] The geographical reference is to a land formation bare of trees, such as a rounded hill, summit, mountain, promontory or headland.

I'm going bluff. It's definitely Frank's "to heat wine or beer with added sugar and spices".
Hang on. what's a bluff?......
-
I just found out that I have a mull head.
-
Can it not also be applied to the vcontext of 'thinking about' something?
As in to 'mull it over'.
Not to to be confised with 'Mullet Over' which is a sub-class of hairstyle so maginificent that the back part is in sufficient in length and luxuriousness that it can be draped over the front of the shoulder as well as the back.

Didn't Mulletova win Wimbledon a few years ago?
-
River level at Colwick expected to surpass the highest recorded (Nov 2000) just before kick off tomorrow. Even if the pitch is fine I think it'll be called off for general H&S reasons.
-
Yeah was just wondering about that. The A46 near me has just closed for flooding, which I've never known before.
-
If it's called off, I assume it'll be because of access to the Trent End.
-
A52 closed at Nottingham Knight, apparently.
-
Tails reckons it will be on. I might need to set off now.

If you're referring to this tweet, that's not quite what he said:

Nottingham Forest are hopeful that tomorrow's game against Luton will not be put at risk by the heavy rain and flooding - but will continue to monitor the situation along with local authorities. -
This is what he says in the Athletic - first part seems more confident than the second.
-
The biggest issue will probably be if the safety advisory group think the mongs can walk along the banks of the Trent without falling in.
