Maybe am lucky, never had any trouble at all with Hermes. Probably helps that the agent for my area lives locally. Also excellent collecting returns too. Iain.

But, does include young Alan's (Jaws Orca) PINK fenders Iain p.s. Forum joke Duncan, we like kidding Alan on

Go for the poor pensioner payment IF there is such a thing. 1p a week should about do it I am concerned though that this forum now has a "Criminal" with a record Oh and a very Merry Christmas to you , Alan Iain.

Hi All, Nope it aint April the 1st Its official and on sale. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-highlands-islands-30292083 Whatever next! Iain.

Maybe Yodel have read this thread, and wouldn't dare let MM down! Iain

Hi Mal Welcome to the NBN forum from me. Iain.

Hi Duncan, What young Alan said! Please. Iain.

Guid mornin Eric, Touch of frost last night here but milder this morning 4c at present and very cloudy. Oh to hop on a plane frae Prestwick and out to Tenerife for winter. sadly flight too long now for me. £20 a pint...nah A bottle of Cardhu and change back, here. Iain.

From now till the beginning of next season, this subject will become more and more heated for sure. My main concerns are health issues, vermin in particular. Well Rats really! Will it take a kiddy say to be bitten before those in charge do something about it all? As Hylander says, its the twenty first century and we should have progressed, sadly this is not the case. Iain

Oh a brave man indeed, but, I have a cunning plan for you Auld Yin Morrisons do Light Wines 5% Pour one of them for her, she will soon be back to pouring you your normal tipple Its not very cunning really, but it may put her off YOUR wine! Iain.

Oh Martin, you've got my Mod finger twitching lol Uncouth indeed! Huh! The cheek of it! Iain.

We had a 40mph from Kilmarnock to the outskirts of Glasgow joining the M77 for nearly three years, while the final piece of the M77 was built. Tedious it was, but I suspect its the safety barrier final checks that is causing the hold up. Iain.

Lets face it, that straight has been there since Roman times I believe, so much for progress Iain.

Just to keep a "balanced view" I totaly agree with Griff on this one, the A1 although improved recently, is still a joke near Newcastle. Down in Yorkielandshire the A1M has improved over the last 40 years a bit. Griff just carry on zooming to Norfolk on yer "Tiger" There is mair chance of us winning the lottery, than getting all these road upgrades soon! Iain

Careful JM or you will end up in the Tower! They won't be amused at Windsor! Iain.

Update!!! 24 and a bit shopping days left! Iain

If its any concellation Ron, I havny a clue either . Go intae any pub in Glesca, and I can assure you, you'd be well looked after. Wur no tight at awe, far from it, i'd gladly buy you a pint, its how many straws required to share the pint wi? Just had that fine Scottish delicacy Haggis Neeps n Tatties to celebrate St Andrews Day Iain.

Just a wee update, I ordered the first two books direct off his website, and arrived very promptly indeed, with a cover note, and they are both signed by him. I have just ordered the other three books as stocking fillers. This is his website.... http://www.chriscrowther.co.uk/ Iain.

Cannot fault Hermes up here, they always leave a card if we are out. I can however fault both Parcel Force and Royal Mail Parcels. Iain

Griff, Looking at that pic, and the height off the water of some of the boats IF not all of them, I wonder how many sprained ankles there were then getting off at the bow, or was the water level much lower then. A very braw bairn by the way Iain.

Hmmmm aint you the lucky one Geoff I have hired a soooperdoooper posh job this year, but it is to celebrate a special year. I am more than happy on a old "grease bucket" sorry Clive only jokin A beds a bed etc etc and yes they all have one forward one reverse gear, hopefully . As they say say, you pays yer money and make yer choice. Now then, to my fellow Scot, Eric, and any others that are lurking on here may I wish you all a very happy St Andrews Day Iain.

Thankfully all bridge tolls are no more up here. Should be the same all over the UK IMHO. Iain.

Thank you Geoff, that was the other one I use to get, The Beezer. Mike...nah never had that one I think though being the festive season you should all wear Santa hats Iain.
