    reading a few of the italian and spanish papers recently, I didn't quite appreciate how much say the EU had in their budgets.

    This is because they are members of the Eurozone, no?

    Like Greece - and that was why the rest of the Eurozone members could have so much of a say on their internal finances.

    You want to be in the club? You stick to the rules.

    Those outside the Eurozone have a free hand.

    I believe.

    I am on the Greggs warpath again 😡😡

    They have shut one of their shops in Argyle St so the other one is queued out the door at 7.45am. All I want is a buttered scone and canny get served for all the folk wanting the cheap hot roll/ coffee offer.

    When I eventually get served by one of their ‘ baristas ‘ they ask ‘sit in or takeaway ?’ Who the fook buys just a scone and sits in ? Scones are worse than monster munch for clinging to your gums. They would chase me out the door if I produced a flask of hot tea from one of my many poly bags.

    Suitably trumped by you Mr Flure!

    I tip my hat!

    One question I have about that game is about the strip Scotland wore that night; it had a hoop across the breast a la Motherwell of the era.

    Was it ever worn again in a game?

  4. I wrote this on Indy eve - such an opportunity missed.

    "And so, here we are. As darkness falls over Scotland on this late summer evening, all the work has been done. The speeches speeched, the canvassing canvassed. There's one more opinion poll due out tonight - but who cares?
    As we go to the Polling Stations tomorrow, remember that it's about the future. The future of Scotland and the people who live here.
    We have had some glorious and not so glorious times as part of the union, but you can't make progress looking in the rear-view mirror. The past will always be. It happened. It's gone.
    This question is about us. It's about the confidence we have in ourselves to make something better. Something that takes us from where we are at the moment, a wealthy country with poor and hungry people, to a country that values its citizens and rewards them appropriately.
    Vote well, friends. May your choice reflect your hope and not your fear!"

    Me. Although with two men's EURO 2020 qualifiers between 7-11 June, it might take some flying in and out of France.

    Yeah, while Scottys openness and honesty is admirable, I can understand people wanting to retain an element of anonymity.

    Theres not too many who hide behind that anonymity on this site to be fair.

    I for example wouldn’t necessarily want to my employer or certain colleagues to know how much down time I had to read and post here.

    :lol:

    I'm glad no-one knows my real ID.
