Who owns Scotland?

[Ivan Cloherty]

Some even insist you wear a shirt. Most wear pants in any case to keep their money in and a corkscrew just in case. Cheers JS

Aye! and the corkscrew is for getting the money out of their pockets,

Cappy I was here on holiday then the year after you on in 1989, that explains quite a bit then , I wondered why I was getting funny looks whenever I said why aye man. We decided then to come out here permanently and finally made it in 1991. Which was another 2 years in the North Sea , why Aye man it gets cold and wet there in wintertime. Being a lot poorer than you I had to get a bank loan to do it. The holiday that is. Did a 10 day job for Westminster dredging for samples of the sand off the coast starting with Dover and finishing in the Thames estuary , paid the air fares here . Left real poverty behind in the UK and started all over again out here a lot better off with time. Now I’ve joined the Air Force am flying . Cheers JS

Cappy ,we even have spuds here for those that bat for the other team, you will often see signs at the side of a country road advertising NEW QUEENS AVAILABLE SOON.
But it would be a brave man that would venture into bandit country and ask for KING EDWARDS

RE: ,we even have spuds here.

Now.

Thankfully what was known as the Great Hunger, is
in a forgotten history.

Though sadly, we should learn from history.

Wasn't Idi Amin king of Scotland?

[Lewis McColl]

Aye It was big Idi, probably wore the black watch tartan.

[Tony Taylor]

Even parts of the sea bed are for hire which ever any country proclaims to own. Colonisation will carry on to space travel and further problems , unless the world gets its act together. Which part of the moon do you want for the cheese it is said to produce. probably from that cow that persists in jumping over it.

Just got the bill for the next years mooring fees on the Tyne, I would have to double check but part of the fee is for the Crown Estates as the Queen owns all the river beds.

[Keith Tindell]

Just as a matter of interest Tony, what is the cost per metre for mooring on the Tyne ?, and is that for 6 months or just season. Interesting for me to what i paid on the Isle of Wight, kt
