  1. 2020 as a year has been risible but I take great solice in joyous repartee that restoreth my faith in the baby jesus
  2. Please refrain from using pejorative expressions that serve to stigmatize mental health issues
  3. The Thick of It thread for this pish. I fear that it is the end of the beginning for him and it won't be long until Johnston feels the hand of history grabbing him by the shoulder.
  4. "the searchlights of science have picked out our invisible enemy and give us the power to stop that enemy" Its all getting a bit silly.
  5. Kerevan comes across to me as significantly partisan via the portal of that piece. I'm not sure Nicola Sturgeon has the privileges to unilaterally suspend party members. He seems to advocate law breaking in terms of Peter Murrell's remuneration. After that I lost a bit of interest and only read to the end through politeness.
  6. Don't bet on it. and don't call me shirley.
  7. Oh but that would be the case but it's common knowledge that sometime within the next 30 (thirty) days N Sturgeon will be gone.
  8. there's got to be a joke in there somewhere
  9. Indeed, where in the world would one find out about such a painting?
  10. I'm ever so glad to wake to the news that the upcoming referendum will have a yes / no question rather than a multi choice based upon party proposals.
  11. I implore you not to be self conscious concerning bankrolling. Rather you should enjoy it whilst it lasts.
  12. After such a tough time, a great result for S Kettlewell and I'm delighted.
  13. A "significant business event" is not "every single meeting". If court proceedings hinged upon your pay award, I'm sure you could find out just when you were lucky enough to have it, very easily indeed and your appearance in the witness box would be as much as a success as your preparation allowed. Do you have a substantive point?
  14. I'm pretty sure I could track down any significant business event that I was involved with via over the last twenty years. Once things make it into that environment, unless you make a determined effort to remove and delete, they tend to stay put. Anyone who is any way busy will have an equivalent time management facility and even if you don't, for a professional person to go to court so spectacularly ill prepared is, at the least, surprising.
  15. I'm not entirely sure why the witness wouldn't have prepared adequately and referred to diaries or other contemporaneous documents that would render their evidence as unequivocal.
  16. When I think of Cantona I think of his sublime talent, his chest puffed out and his1996 cup final goal. I would contend that only those with but a passing acquaintance of the game would firstly recall a single disjoint. See Jimmy Johnstone. Most people where exactly? The assertion wasn't about an item on a recall list, it was about single No1 hit parade event. The BBC output from Glasgow didn't claim the "game", they specifically referenced the first goal and I'm not really sure* what mindset allowed them to think that was reasonable. *I can have a good guess
  17. You would expect it from BBC Anglia and the thickest there might have their historical disappointment somehow assuaged but there is no excuse for a similar editorial line from Glasgow. I fear that, heaped upon a previous partisan outlook, we now have an editorial and intellectual deficit that will continue to disappoint those who would wish for better.
  18. I feel so relieved that the snp will be unique in feeling any covid induced economic chill. I actually think that starting from what might be perceived to be a common reset would be a great advantage.
  19. BBC radio Scotland have claimed that Diego Maradona was most famous for a goal against England. I'm not at all sure that everyone in Napoli or Buenos Aires would necessarily agree with this quite curious take.
  20. Indeed a quick search reminds me... why would you choose to appear so charmless
  21. I'd have thought that common or garden covid related risk assessments should prevail when judging the necessity or even efficacy of each task that requires transport. Eliminating the risk is always the best option. That you seem to have completely overlooked this aspect is enough for me to invite you to reconsider your very harsh summing up of ICT's role in this matter.
  22. The exposing of epidermis is raw but despite the fun I've had with the choices hirsute, I feel for the individual and his wellbeing
  23. That is disgusting but I'm happy to report that only an approximate 19.7% of our fellow denizens will be taken with this base bigotry and that won't be enough for DRoss to maintain his veneer with even a shred of credibility
