Good book isn't it Jah? I only drank bourbon whiskeys before I read that


i did a 10 day road trip in Scotland a few years back - one of my favourite holidays that was - right through the midlands. By the time I got to Oban I felt I had reached Gotham City we had been so isolated

Keef man, if you're going to Scotland, it's WHISKY - no e, that's fighting talk that is.


I'm torn about Scotland: it gave me pneumonia but it also gave me fine single malts, and it is kind of beautiful.


I'm very excited about this book though - Sean my dear, you got a copy going for a lend?

That's exactly the sort of shabby Jock tactic I've come to expect from a tarten turd such as yourself Ted. I find it disturbingly ironic that Holyrood see's it fit to release a terrorist but wont release a beautiful and majestic animal such as a wolf into it's remote wilderness.


It's a pity as I'd quite like to read about grouchy, inbred crofters being bitten by a Wolf.

I'm with MP.


Americans are hysterical. As in disordered.


Their crazy take on a Cuban booking at a Scottish hotel not so long ago? An attempted boycott of Scottish firms.


More Islay malt and Talisker for us. Bring it on.

Scots are comparable to women. When they are good, they are very very good. When they are pissed off, stay the ?$*$ away from them.


If you're a Scottish gal (like myself) then we're double lucky because we get away with twice as much. :o)


Otherwise we'll just give you a 'glasgae' kiss

Not to mention that their so called 'boycotts' are pretty lame, with the whole 'freedom fries' thing they didn't actually stop eating them, just renamed them. What did they seriously expect the French to do?

Say "sacre bleu, the Americans have stopped calling their fried chips 'French Fries', we don't actually make them in France or get any money for the name 'French Fry' but we better bow to their demands and fall to our knees to kiss their feet"

Didn't quite a bit of funding for the IRA come from the States, namely those who claim to be 'Irish Americans', or is that just an urban myth?

      How do you know what the fox wanted to do if it didn’t do it.

      Quote "it was quite clear that it wanted to nip me." Doesn't say clearly that it tried to bite you , but instead implies that you had the impression, right or wrong that it wanted to nip you.  unless you are clear others will read it how you write it.  As for being a jobsworth, what a quaint old expression, haven't heard that for a long while.

      Attempted car theft - Underhill

      By Penguin68 · Posted

      Crook locks can be sawn through, or the steering wheel to which it is attached, I know to my own cost. The safest additional security measure is what's called a ghost immobiliser, which cannot be traced through the car's electronics, meaning it is difficult to bypass. They cost a bomb however.

      Thieves on electric bike around East Dulwich

      By march46 · Posted

      I’ve reported two instances of mobile phone theft to 999 in recent times. On both occasions several police units have arrived very quickly - in one case they found the perpetrator.
