Best to give the ferry a miss then.
It'll buff out.

Transport being a devolved issue, the FM has stated that the picture showing the fecked ferry "is just an evil tory ba#tard metaphor for SNP cock ups - which of course we never have, so it must have been photo shopped".

ETA... nobody pronounces it correctly... according to the very local, it's Kyle (as in pile), and sku (as in poo). Kyle Sku, but with the emphasis on the second syllable.. so.. KyleSKU. Add a Highland accent and you'll have it.

As you were.

That is a graceful bridge. Makes the bridge to Skye look particularly ungainly.

Looks like a great part of the world, I've never been north of Inverness.

I hope you all vote No so I won't feel bad about coming on holiday there at some stage. Would I still be welcome? smile

20%?

We want 30 at least, or we are cutting the Tunnocks supply off.

We'll send Frankie Boyle south of the border too, keep him, he is yours.

Ironically, from the comments I've read and small part I just caught on TV in passing, I can't help but think that is to opening ceremonies what the SNP are to political parties.

Really I couldn't hear more than a few of the crowd sing alon to the national anthem, you get more enthusiasm at an under 18 rugby international held at Adam's Park than I saw this evening.

At the end yes a cheer but little participation, just my perception, that is all.

How were the langoustines? Can't wait until we're back in the Autumn, assuming cuddly Uncle Alex will let us in.

Remember, 70% of festival "comedy" is "controversial" and ste so I'd not get too worked up about it.
