My advice would be to wear the kilt. At least you won't be bothered by flies buzzing around your face.

I'm now told that the tv is defunct; deid; an ex-tv.

If you think this is bad, just wait until after the goal rush against the tims.

What are the chances of that?! Two guys in one team with the same name!

That's a pretty good description of Erskine.

Could've been Aston Villa (Aye, right). Will probably be Albion Rovers.

Whatever the total sum was, we presumably got it in full, as we weren't included as a creditor in their list of shame.

That drums up thoughts of what I'd imagine a drunken nightmare evening in a Glaswegian brothel might be like.

Ach bugger, I cannae go.

Good shout. Bit of an unsung hero, Deas.

That's cheap! You mean for the 10th September match?

Believe it or not, donner kebab joints are now springing up all over the place in Japan. Groan. They're about 1/4 of the size you get here, for around the same price!

I did just that. She certainly has pumped it up by around 30 decibels, I reckon!

Agreed, but I think that if there's a fairly low crowd it'll be due to the timing. A lot of people away on holiday then. If I was here I'd definitely have gone along.

Don't like that.

I was in Japan when The Cove was released there. Many cinemas that planned to screen it received seriously threatening messages, and so most of them were too terrified by the orchestrated campaign of protests to show it.

No it's not, it's done simply to protect Japanese tastes for particular types of sea food. And you surely don't believe scientific research that is funded by the Japanese government on behalf of the whaling industry. Although whales slaughtered and eaten by Japan are supposedly killed for "scientific research", the number that now gets killed is even greater than it was before. Another thing, some schoolchildren get fed whale whether they like it or not; this is nothing but a method of getting them used to the idea of eating whale meat. There is no morally justifiable reason for killing and or eating whales.

It was an important correction to make. To keep this on track, I'm glad the Erskine won't be jumping ship.

Rubbish. Nothing racist about it at all. People who are against slaughtering and eating whales don't care who does it; it's wrong. Japanese people do not need to eat whales. The insistence of the Japanese government to continue to support it could also be seen as racist, as Japanese refusing to comply with the majority view of other countries. And why do they refuse to conform? "Because we are Japanese, and we can do what we like."

Before anybody starts, there's no knead to take this thread to a dark place.

I'd give a big hand to the guy who's modeling it.

Agreed. It becomes pish fun.

H2O under the Erskine. Got away with it earlier!
