    Wouldn't dispute for a second the fact that Wales is a country, a very great one too with a superb history and culture just like ourselves :ok:. I am confident that after we gain our own independence then we will see a great upsurge in demand for Welsh independence.

    Technicalities aside about whether they are or are not a principality, the fact remains that they have never had a King or Queen. Their ruler historically was always a Prince. Even Owain Glyndŵr never became a King.

    At one time Wales had lots of "Kingdoms", and they did have a King  ( Gruffydd ap Llywelyn)                        that ruled the entire country. Seemingly he was known as the King of Britons, not King of Wales and only ruled for 7 years.

  2. Don't want to give too much away, but the new series certainly starts and ends with epic scenes. Little frustrated with the ending, but sets the second episode up well.

    They're also advertising a new Walking Dead series over here called Fear the Walking Dead Flight 461 (or something like that).

  3. I was at a Glenrothes Aberdeen Supporters POTY night out many moons ago. Jim Leighton was in attendance, and I just had to be standing next to him when a Dons fans mentioned to him about Billy Thomson letting in a long range shot while playing for Scotland (can name mind who it was against). Leighton's reply was that "No Goalie should let in a shot from that distance". I reminded Leighton that he had let in a shot from a similar distance the previous season at Dens Park. He wisnnae happy at being reminded of this and told me to FO Ya St Johnstone Wa nk".

  4. Way back in the 1970's I went to quite a few East Fife and Raith Rovers home games as a neutral.

    I went to Old Trafford to watch Man U v Dundee United in a European game (went to the return game at Tannadump too). Cannae mind the year.

    Cardiff v Barnsley and Newport v Millwall back in the 80's

    I'm visiting Kraków in a couple of weeks, so planning to go to Wisła Kraków v Zawisza Bydgoszcz

  5. They can sell it to some private developer and turn it into a hotel. Parliament can sit in Buckingham Palace (after all it is HM Government), plenty rooms there for the mp's offices and portakabins can be located in the parade ground if extra offices needed

    The banqueting hall can do for the commons. Good opportunity to get rid of all those coffin dodgers from the Lords.

  6. Why has the mystery of the egg man not been cracked yet. You would think they could scramble some resources to discover the perpetrator. On a more serious side , if it was YES supporter then the press would have been all over it like a rash and have the bloke named immediately. Someone must know who it is - seems like media suppression of the truth once more.

    One of the letter in today's online version of the Courier, said the guy had been named (although not in the letter), and that he was not a member of the Yes campaign. So if true, it looks like the authorities, the beeb, STV and the newspapers won't name him, and Murphy and the no campaign can milk the story as much as they can.

    Today's Edinburgh evening news has a story about Yes Hearts fans being attacked outside Tyncastle during Saturdays game (by no supporters), but lord pishy pants, says there's no evidence it was or orchestrated by the no campaign.
