  1. love that era and music..... would love to see Shed7 sometime soon. For some reason though I developed an irrational dislike of Cast - always seemed like whiney, annoying and irrelevant music...
  2. Wonder how many Rangers players have realised the only way some of them keep their jobs next season is to lose the play off ?
  3. surely if parliament took the view that lying was unbecoming of such a position and suspended him for 21 days he could be recalled on petition by his constituents ?
  4. so we had to vote No to get her to stay and we voted No but she's going anyway ?
  5. feck that, feck foxes..... we wanted out, they frightened us into staying.... I think we should cause merry hell till they want to put us out. They should have been careful what they wished for...
  6. just think how much more creepy he would look in a cloak....
  7. problem with Mazda's is that no matter how good they are technically, they look absolutely sh!ite.......
  8. he's they guy who made me love blues.... I saw him in Glasgow in the 90s and he came round shaking everyones hand - when I walked away he had pressed a little pin badge of Lucille into my hand...... what a legend and what a singer, gives me shivers to listen to his voice.....
  9. it was mandatory when I lived in Germany and I think it should be here too.... its not that big an outlay, most people keep a cheap set of second wheels with winter tyres... you've got the initial outlay but over the typical life of a car its not extra, they take twice as long to wear out... and any wear gets noticed when they are changed, not when you slide into a lamppost in January....
  10. trooooo burt compared to the SNP's new cash influx both Lab and Lib will feel they are falling well behind where they were. Amazing new dynamic..
  11. They all took a step right.... we stayed roughly where we were. Apart from geopolitics you have to remember only the U.S. and the UK value MBAs highly, Miliband was at Harvard, the main parties are stuffed full of Republican and Democrat strategists and analysts. Our politics, media and our world view is slowly converging with the U.S. Scotland's is not.
  12. it could be developed but we would not be allowed to set a different rate. EU wouldn't allow it......
  13. we want it, we want it now - the reason Hosie et al were trying to slow down expectations was that they dont want to get rushed into negotiations and fecked over by the Tories....... To do it properly it requires maybe 5-10 years of careful transfer. We can't afford to destabilise the English economy and they can't afford to destabilise ours - we depend on each other for trade too much. I once worked for a corporation who were spun off and left with a huge debt burden which caused them to sink slowly over time. This can't be allowed to happen to us... However we want it, we want it soon. We want it through a professional and careful transfer of powers. Remember our ongoing net investment in London is an ongoing de-investment in our own economy. Debt is effectively irrelevant as an argument - we have debt now and we will have debt when we change. There is no magic formula which means someone else pays our debts as part of the UK now - we (imo) pay more share than we got to invest here anyway... One of the real benefits is to move all the jobs and institutions from London to Scotland, this has a cost and will take time - you can't do this stuff overnight and thats why caution is best...
  14. Id like to see the current SLAB reorganise itself as a independent labour party in Scotland. Their forced focus on Holyrood plus the increased powers would take them eventually to support indy with a wee detour through full devo....
  15. how do you do a smirk ? I've been trying and it just looks weird on me....
  16. Trinity Mirror has strong links with the Labour Party in London and the position of the Record is directed from there. Simon Fox and many others regulars at Labour party functions and strategy meetings. They will be fighting a 'strong rearguard action' against the SNP from there...
  17. SNP won't touch being in government with a sh!tty stick... who the hell would want to be that unpopular... As I said about 6 months ago. Tories will be biggest party and if SNP get more than 40 seats they will offer devo max except VAT, defence and foreign policy in return for them baling out of WM....
  18. Some men shouted at each other in Glasgow. At one point someone said to their mate 'haud me back.....', then another man said 'you're aw trouble makers - ahm here to shout at the people and yous are shoutin anaw....' then they went hame after makin a pure riddy o' themsels.... It's no exactly the tims and the billy boys on Glasgow green is it ?
  19. I predict no less than 42 seats.... can we run a sweep ? I'll put a quid in
  20. so pretty much acknowledging we are a foreign country and they just make our decisions for us...
