Boghead ranter

He's too busy looking after the kids, or so the papers would have their readers believe, conveniently not mentioning that the family are nannied oot their nuts under normal conditions.

New Bayview?

From memory, it formed a day of work out of a larger self-development(improvement) course my work put me and my peers thru. After all the work we did, my results were plotted on a scale, my Auditory and Visual learning were in single figures, Kinesthetic (ie practical) was within single figures of the top mark possible. I had to Google to make sure I had the terms right in my post, and saw stuff that @virginton refers to, that less importance should be attached to learning styles (maybe it was a typical 'trendy' thing) but the premise for me was spot on - talk at me or give me manuals/processes to read, I learn virtually nothing. Give me something practical to do alongside other instructions, I pick up stuff really quickly.

Used to work with a lassie who was slim, but like an ironing board with 2 smarties on it. She convinced the NHS that this made her feel so down and insecure that she got a breast enhancement on the NHS. Afterwards, she was now an insecure lassie with slightly larger diddies. In her case, she'd've probably benefitted more from some sort of counselling rather than surgery.

It was only when I did a fairly involved Learning Styles module as part of a training course, at my old work, that it fell into place why I made such a poor attempt at my engineering degree (I lasted 16 weeks). Auditory learning, I scored really really poorly (worse than Sons front line), and the bulk of my course, at least the term I did, was sitting in lectures listening to someone, well, lecturing. Visual - not a whole lot better. Like you, I have to read, reread, and reread again multiple times, and even then in 10 minutes time, it's as if I've never read the stuff at all. So, the course support books were little use to me either. Kinesthetic learning - I was off the scale to the opposite degree. If I'd only known this years before, I'd've done something much more differently eg go down an apprenticeship route or summat.

Agreed.

Large nips for me.

7/9/91, Kilbowie Ba***es 1, Killie 1. Looks like Tommy Burns in 1 of the pics?

We don't need more midfielders though.

He had a classic final in the Dutch Open versus Hertz Van Rental. 2009, I think it was.

Re the moustaches, the offence was committed on Nov 13, so thry were probably Movember efforts.

I thought it was just the usual oppresser/oppressed shtick, but you have made me realise that that might be a bit highbrow, and colour-based choices are more likely.

Highlights from Somerset.

3, if you count Whit A State.

Confirmed.

I do that with GBX on a Saturday night.

All just want to be early in the Yellow Pages* imo. *One for the older P&Bers, there.

Canny be arsed talking about the game, but this image is magnificent.

Blair can sprint for 47m in an entire game, though, mind.

Buchan......Dalglish......YAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!

I was at a QP/Sons league match when 3/4 if the current seating was in, the East Stand was still getting fitted out (1999 or 2000 then, probs? Back when QP still had a fan that took a trombone to games.). QP fans in main stand, Sons in North. Looked even less than above attendance. Got parked on the street right outside the North right enough, so every cloud and all that.

Yes - parents who have done the school run twice during the day, then try to drive on a main route in the dark in the evening (M8, Edi bypass) and crash into other people, causing massive traffic jams.
