  1. I noticed this last month... Describing taking the knee thus: "represent the requirements for social justice" Strange form of words, strange man.
  2. I wondered what became of Kevin. From it's launch, I took the Scotland on Sunday paper and the tag team of Kevin and Graham brought joy to this eager reader and it is with fondness and admiration that I recall what Kevin shared.
  3. This is indeed comedy gold. I also missed the goal as I pressed pause at half time and that is something that greatly surprised me. I came back to the game full in the knowledge of the shared result, and tracked down the equalizer. "It's a goal" proclaimed our purveyor of prose to augment the play. The coverage and the commentary was redolent of Pathé in the middle years of the last century.
  4. and for those of us that maintain that there is little in the way of difference on this island, the hard fact that north of the Tweed a fifth vote for them but it goes south when it sinks in that elsewhere getting on for a half of everyone think this is a reasonable course of action.
  5. "he's on the wing now" Whereas factually he was in the box
  6. Yes, log in at the top right and select the live game. I got sound and vision at 14:57 I was beginning to worry about the spinning wheel
  7. Our two recent interactions have resulted in you being humiliated a premature ejection from the threads. Not to worry, although we both recall, nobody else will. Also, Isabel Fraser, Gary Fraser, Jackie O'Brien et al would seek to disagree.
  8. (oh my) What would you have against his "accent"? Is there a suite of accents that are highland league compliant?
  9. It's at least a size too big for him. Perhaps it would fit you.
  10. I'm not sure Bloomberg have a dog in the race. Perhaps this source material would be from a neutral enough source for even the most fervent of contributors? It's not particularly radical in its content in suggesting that the tolies will lie and obfuscate. I agree with the proposition that "just say no" is untenable.
  11. The effect is with us already. Drivetime today ... 7 (seven) minutes on someone called Dominic West kissing Lily James. Perhaps John Beattie and his production team think this is acceptable. Me, I'd have thought that there would be various service providers that can provide product that can speculate upon the private lives of celebrities and BBC Scotland would be best served by broadcasting something of at least some merit.
  12. Given that Ken Macdonald is also taking the package, I rather think that your suggestion bears little in the way of substantive scrutiny. It seems to me that you've had a run of ill fortune in this regard in the very recent past. I wish you better luck in future.
  13. I'm ever see so sorry and if you have a transient issue with focussing, I'll frame a view in simple terms: In the face of such an obviously destructive Farage path, a path you agree is a wrong road, can anyone really doubt that our choice might be a more positive one?
  14. What hill, what march? 2014 was lost and who in the name of coherence could argue for such a swift rerun whilst polls showed no substantial shift? It is now that time seems to kind and yet you are obsessing over the prospect of an internecine conflict. Strange. We both know who the next leader won't be
  15. The kind of hush rather has me doubting whether Peter is at all perturbed. I had hoped that my offering might have raised the tone, but do you really have to be so base? If I must respond then I would politely disagree and I really do think that it would be to our collective benefit to take a more positive path to that you have already agreed is a misstep.
  16. I heard this morning that there is to be another cull with Bill Whiteford and Isabel Fraser amongst those that are shortly going. There's not all that much that they are leaving behind and for anyone that values the service that they bring, that must be a cause for regret.
  17. That Farage got traction in England is a source of puzzlement to me. I felt a swell of pride when he, well rather his message, was run out of Edinburgh and I joined the hand wringing afterwards. It says a lot about us that we immediately felt for the supposed victim. Further south and aside from a milkshake or two, the zeitgeist has been grabbed and England has embraced or perhaps it is in a grip. It wasn't a mistake, oh no, they verified their collective will almost a year ago. I thought that we might be better together in 2014 but now that this relative deficit thing has been exposed for the fraud that it is, I amongst many others see the financials and see Farage and the path is as obvious as it is positive.
