Well Scotland is well and truly in winter's grip we had a 124mph! Storm last week and as I speak we are in the middle of another, with 80mph gales and blizzards, Glasgow resembled Moscow last night the wind doth howl and scream and thunder growls across the dark sky... where is this unruly weather from straight across the Atlantic is America under several feet of snow and struggling with powerful winds?..

Yes I think we got the impression that the storms were incessant if your posts were anything to go by old lad.

Lard sandwiches and deep-fried chocolate cake with eight pints of whisky, that's what you'd get if you went over to glasgow to appreciate the storms.

Talking of Scotland, though, the fines place therein must be, in my humble opinion, st Andrews and the surrounding area.

## Post 14 by Goblin (I have proven to myself and the world that I need mental help) on Friday, 21-Jan-2005 11:05:06

I'm disgusted the deep fried mars bar ect. However there probably are some bampots, who would happily swallow 8 pints of just about anything.
.............
St Andrews is very nice yes the beaches are stunning...but for dramatic scenery you cant beat Wester Ross and Sutherland..

Ross is unfortunately within the constituency of charles Kennedy, and I daren't set foor there lest I turn into a chain-smoking alcoholic with a very poor taste in shoes like he is.

## Post 17 by Caitlin (I've now got the silver prolific poster award! wahoo!) on Friday, 21-Jan-2005 20:50:56

How did we get from weather to Charles Kennedy? Hehhehee. Anyway, back to the weather, just because I have something to say on that front. It was really strange; today, on one side of town, it was sunny and warm, and right on the other side, it was freezing! Isn't that cool and strange?

Back to the weather, just because I have something to say on that front......hahahahahaha Caitlin that was very witty of you and your urbanity is certainly improving. However, let me suggest to you that it is neither cool nor strange. It clearly isn't cool or strange because it happens quite often, especially in this country of ours (Although admittedly not of yours). And I'd be surprised if Charles Kennedy had a high enough profile in the US for people to actually know who he is.

## Post 19 by Goblin (I have proven to myself and the world that I need mental help) on Saturday, 22-Jan-2005 9:33:48

ohh get over Charles Kennedy man.smile .Are you implying
that if your man offered to buy you a drink, in the only pub for miles, you would refuse, of course not. I'd happily down an or 3 ale with a man who doesn't spend his hard earned cash on designer shoes ...as they take far too long to break in. ..
....................
Caitlin its neither in the parts of town where there are many buildings close together, the temperature can and does rise,if on the other side the buildings are far apart then the heat given off from those buildings will be less and dissipate faster therefore the cold will dominate.

## Post 20 by lawlord (I'm going for the prolific poster awards!) on Saturday, 22-Jan-2005 10:44:56

Of course I would accept a drink from charles Kennedy, then hopefully I could get him pissed before he had to appear in the House of Commons or something. Imagine the negative publicity for the woolly-minded Liberal Democrats taht would cause! Anyway Mr Kennedy's health is failing him reportedly.

## Post 21 by Goblin (I have proven to myself and the world that I need mental help) on Saturday, 22-Jan-2005 11:05:41

Ohh I'm sorry to hear that old Chaz never struck me as a pisshead {hides the 6 pack of Harp given as a swee..sorry gift}
.................................
Its well seen your a Tory man resorting to these underhand tricks I could almost admire such blatant deviousness.

## Post 22 by lawlord (I'm going for the prolific poster awards!) on Saturday, 22-Jan-2005 11:11:58

Well for once this is not a product of the Tories digging for dirt on Charles Kennedy. He's a self-confessed chain-smoker and last year he had some very high profile no shows, the one for the budget being the most high profile.

## Post 23 by Caitlin (I've now got the silver prolific poster award! wahoo!) on Saturday, 22-Jan-2005 15:43:14

Urbanity? Um ... okay sure. And yes I have no idea who Charles Kennedy is. Heh. And it isn't a really natural occurrencei n the US to have different weather on opposite sides of town, though it does happen sometiems. I find it cool though! Caitlin

## Post 24 by Goblin (I have proven to myself and the world that I need mental help) on Sunday, 23-Jan-2005 9:51:36

Chain smoker uurrgh! Well he wouldnt last long in anti smoking Glasgow, its about to be outlawed in an attempt to save us from destruction as the citizens of that fine city woulds say "you've nae f..kin hope y'bampot!" They are not known for their eloquence ...I however originate from Westerton so I'm rather posh..supposedly ..face burns with blushing.

## Post 25 by lawlord (I'm going for the prolific poster awards!) on Sunday, 23-Jan-2005 15:32:33

Well Mr Kennedy is apparently a highlander, where I wouldn't fancy their chances of implementing any smoking ban.

## Post 26 by Caitlin (I've now got the silver prolific poster award! wahoo!) on Monday, 24-Jan-2005 0:04:13

Ther'es already a topic about this impending smoking ban, right? In case it's been forgotten, I'll reiterate that I think that's utterly pointless. No one's gonna listen, people will do what they want. Unless, of course, they make it so if you smoke you're put in jail or somethign drastic like that. Lol. Caitlin

yes but does he wear a kilt, this is what we need to know...And how do you know he's a chain-smoking alcoholic LL hmmmm give me some hard evidence to back up these scurrilous assertions or I will challenge you to a duel! Pistols at dawn I think...Frey.

LL.If the Wee Free Presbyterian church linked smoking with hell and damnation, especially on the sabbath, the highlanders would quit on masse tomorrow...

Caitlin our fhurer Jack McConnell has already threathened to arrest smokers in Glasgow if they are caught lighting up in pubs and offices ect...its only a matter of time until the poor sods are carted off to be re-educated, or failing that, if you refuse to pass on your nane and address ect,you can be arrested for withholding information...."If you don't hev your papers I vill hev to shoot you!".

Dear me isn't it funny how our government goes out of its way to protect us from crisps, sweets and tobacco, with the support of charles the Chain-Smoker Kennedy, but is quite happy about exposing us to binge drinkers, soft drugs and 24-hour super-casinos?
