And then he's forced to agree that it's a better system, because, well we all know why because.<br /><br />It really is that scary.Weekend Yachtsmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04262853091154005651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32841798.post-39394884074243356372015-10-19T12:44:24.061+01:002015-10-19T12:44:24.061+01:00The turnip lantern (note to sassenachs - turnip, a...The turnip lantern (note to sassenachs - turnip, aka neep, NOT pumpkin) evokes fond childhood memories of central Scotland, together with dunkin' for toffee apples blindfolded, using only a fork between your teeth.<br /><br />Charming harvest rituals, not at all to be confused with charmless political posturing.Roderickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01303608211901623404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32841798.post-77222949428056001872015-10-18T15:12:09.234+01:002015-10-18T15:12:09.234+01:00Salmond on R5 this morning.

Had one not kn own better, one would have thought that<br /><br />a) The SNP won the referendum<br /><br />b) The Tories did not win the election.<br /><br />Nor did the BBC see fit to make any attempt to correct him. <br /><br />I call them the JDP now. The Juvenile Delinquent Party. Could apply to Labour as well, I guess now, as most of their antics resemble those we gave up in adolescence.Elby the Beserkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15060519682739666145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32841798.post-42734878777362271292015-10-18T14:18:12.851+01:002015-10-18T14:18:12.851+01:00Tinkerbell and Never Never Land?Tinkerbell and Never Never Land?Demetriushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17198549581667363991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32841798.post-13324459697176842722015-10-18T10:21:16.474+01:002015-10-18T10:21:16.474+01:00Aye Fish head no. 2 frightens me, she is a wee hob...Aye Fish head no. 2 frightens me, she is a wee hobgoblin wooing the woaded Celtic peoples [in her minds eye] and it's all hot air but she is riding the crest of windy wave.<br /><br />When one looks at the recent goings on in North Korea, the cult of the dear leader - and I think FFS - this is the third millennia! <br /><br />Then muse, how is it that, so many Scots can be taken in [they're not all thick by a long chalk] - the hobgoblin only peddles regurgitated Socialist and cultural Marxist pap - Sturgeon is a parody of a Mel Gibson 'Braveheart' in a dress. <br /><br />How can so many people [Scots] be so gullible?
