Spike Milligan once defined the British Army thus :- "If a man dies when you hang him, keep hanging him until he gets used to it......." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol Back in 1662 William Christian was sentenced to be hung, drawn and quartered. His wife appealed against the sentence which was changed by the Deputy Governor who decided he should be shot. This was carried out on the 2 January 1663 and an entry in the Parish Register of Malew states that ‘he died most penitently and most curragiously, made a good end, prayed earnestly, made an excellent speech, and next day was buried in the chancel of Kirk Malew Just goes to show it's always worth appealing a death sentence. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having never seen the film I will bow to your your better judgement. I was merely retelling what the flag seller told me, that I had indeed seen a person he called "Brave". But if you want to get all precious about it then at least give her her full name and title so we are all fully aware... Princess Merida of (the clan) DunBroch...apparently. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am Featha Taigh Nan Clach Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 This could probably go in a number of threads but here will do. My wife was looking through her phone calendar/smartwatch App and said 'oh, my period should have started on Tuesday'. After about 5 seconds she then casually said 'my mistake, it's this coming Tuesday' 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
