Wow..as in a weirdward of wayment, Sgt. A thaumaturgy in type. =D>

Yes, Sharon, you’re right. It IS patronising and absurd in equal measure, after all if these clowns were genuine in their opprobrium, then they wouldn’t be returning – however brielfy – to deliver their tracts of contempt.
It’s more about bolstering their own flagging identities and sorry egos. Best to be regarded with disdain at least or amusement at most. They come, they go, who really gives a terrapin’s toss?

If I Was

Did I mention I once touched Midge Ure’s hair?! I soooo did, I was like 16 at the time and he had just finished singing Vienna, was amazing! 8)

Which hair was it? The one on the left or the right?

Boyd is first and foremost a goal scorer..I would rather have a lazy player who scores goals, than one who runs up and down the pitch scoring bugger-all.
Burley should have played him..certainly for the second half..instead he had him sitting on the bench whilst not one man on the pitch could put a ball in the net.
Even with ten minutes to go..Boyd could have been a potential scorer. Big mistake by Burley..even though the man is sex on legs.

I had a gaggle of lairy musicians in my sitting room at that time; amidst the shenanigans of song, speech and veggie-haggis, I toasted the Bard with nowt stronger than a wee (diet) Irn bru.

For Ruby..

Bonnie Lesley

O SAW ye bonnie Lesley
As she gaed o’er the Border?
She ‘s gane, like Alexander,
To spread her conquests farther.

To see her is to love her,
And love but her for ever;
For Nature made her what she is,
And ne’er made sic anither!

Thou art a queen, fair Lesley,
Thy subjects we, before thee:
Thou art divine, fair Lesley,
The hearts o’ men adore thee.

The Deil he couldna scaith thee,
Or aught that wad belang thee;
He’d look into thy bonnie face
And say, ‘I canna wrang thee!’

The Powers aboon will tent thee,
Misfortune sha’na steer thee:
Thou’rt like themsel’ sae lovely,
That ill they’ll ne’er let near thee.

Return again, fair Lesley,
Return to Caledonie!
That we may brag we hae a lass
There ‘s nane again sae bonnie!

“You must admit.. .”
No I mustn’t..I ain’t owning up to nuttin’:twisted:

Then there are the legacies of afternoon Australian soaps, such as..
“I can’t hack it..” why..is your machette blunted?
“I’m gonna dob you in.” No..you’re going to clipe on me..you illiterate barstard.
And many more which will spring to mind when I’m trying to sleep tonight and it’s all your fault Johnboy.. :evil:

When eejits round off a sentence with “As you do..”
” I was walking across the street trying not to get mown down by a runaway chariot…as you do!”
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr :evil:
