Need pix of the brothers!

[Basvarken]

Haha thanx. It's not an achievement or anything. Just don't shave. But hey, you knew that already.

Here's a more Gibby friendly shot for you TBird1958. But I must say, Thunderbirds look much prettier on you....

I think they sex up anybody that plays one! 

[Highlander]

Ah ... maybe we should all start playing V's 

[TBird1958]

Ah ... maybe we should all start playing V's 

No sexin' you up - Mr married man! 

[Highlander]

25 years, near the end of next month ...

... and my Thunderbird's got a V head, sort of ...

[Pilgrim]

Comin' up 30 years this November, and taking my wonderful lady to Hawaii to celebrate. 

[Highlander]

[eternal shame] I'm on call ... [/eternal shame]

In all seriousness, I'm banking on the move north as our anni treat, all being well ...

[TBird1958]

North to where Kenny?

[Highlander]

Potentially some independent country, dependant on attitudes, next September ... nothing too drastic ...

Men commonly wear skirts there too... 

[TBird1958]

Canada? are you joining the Canadian Navy?


Ok, just kidding, 'cause if you're moving to Scotland I'm just insanely jealous..........

[Highlander]

No worries Mark ... at least I'll be able to source some interesting malts, should you be looking for something special to dose the liver... 

Mind you, I note that you're not that far from all those Canadian Sailors ...

If it all comes together, I'm sure to post a wee note or two ...

I have no worries as long as border control there doesn't take aviation recognition tests from immigrants.

Isn't Scotland trying to secede from the UK these days? Better get there quick Kenny before you have to apply for citizenship.

[uwe]

Wouldn't then a more accurate description of the UK be "Welshiedom" or "Eales"?

I see the ghost of my Catholic sister Mary Stuart rising to finally take her rightful place and oust that illicit offspring conceived under the most disgraceful circumstances ...

It's what we always wanted. Of course we would have given Scotland full independence after beating down English imperialism, Operation Seelöwe was a thrust for Scottish freedom. Divide and rule.

[Highlander]

I'd have automatic right of entry to Alba, Ari, by parental rights, but independence would not take place until at least 2017, and our hope is relocation in 2015, so we'll already be living there ...

I was discussing this with someone in the Glasgae area earlier this afternoon who was the "minority view" in his office re staying within the UK and not voting for independence, and we both agreed what the problem Westminster has, and why they are "running scared" of the outcome ...

Simple math ...

The majority of the population is disaffected by politics so are somewhat ambivalent to politicians in general, so no longer bother to vote, believing "it will make no difference" ... they may cost the UK the bit north of Hadrian's Wall because of this ambivalence, but Westminster will only have itself to blame for it ...

But ... those that do want to take a risk and go-for-it, think like this ... I Can Make A Difference...! ... They will vote, and that is what scares Westminster most ...

Soap box away and a return to normal service ... Ah yes, and I guess as I've nailed my colours to the mast, I'm out of the closet now ...
