It was absolutely amazing. Breathtaking views, a couple of spliffs, some drinks and the best company in the world.

I count myself very lucky to be allowed this

Someday I will come to Scotland and improve the view in two places.

I will even bring a guitar that I cannot play, which will be a relief.

One day I will have a violin, one that I shall never play.

...phew..


..as long as you leave it in the states when you visit all should be great (unless you are refering to your straddlevarious),... in which case will I find it? Bring that one by all means!..Just don't start practising in the dales..

*Definition of Hogmanay: Hogmanay, if you ask a Scott, this will be invaraiably received and answered with a knowing shrug of the shoulders... Exactly the same sort of shrug, if asked whether they really wear undies under their quilts kilts.

This is The Truth about Hogmanay and why it received such a piggish name. Well already, I have "dropped" a clue. Did you see it.

The main reason is, because the Scotts, better known as The Picts ( not pricks, that's an outdated Geordie joke) live in a ijle climate. Occasionaly the Golf Stream does lash the North Western coast of Scotland, which is why the Mackay clan are such good footballers.

Getting back to the anaology between Hogmanay and a Pig.

Because of the climate, the Scotts are a thrifty folk. They work long hours to store enough oats for the Dark Season, which commences in March just after the long winter night. This all means that they have nought to share with other folks. That's why they are called stingy in the folks mouth. Luckily, they have an assett. This assett is a natuaral occuring plague of small flies, called midgies. These midgies are the main ingredient of the famous Scottish New Years "giveaways" known also as Flies" these are lavishly given to the first-footers that visit during Hogamanay; and harvested at their peak in the summer, when they are still filled with visitor's blood.

So the reason Hogmanay is called Hogmanay and not Pigamy is because pigamy was too much like Bigamy, and that subject is still taboe amongst the clans.

If the Golf Steam had lashed their coast more often, They might have even invented television and football; to watch it on.

So you see the reason is climatical .

blah blah blah blah

Fixed.

You could save yourself a lot of time and effort by just posting the above quote in future, I'm pretty sure that's all everyone ever gets from your posts now.

I know I do

I already thought of that, but abandoned that idea as being too repetative and boring.

A point you have over-looked, is that that this definition was posted after a request from our General -In -Disguise, General Skweeky, who was not aware of the ancient New Years Scottish custom, Hogamanay. I bundled a little "code"into it and posted as requested.
