Girls drink what? We need to know! I've known girls to drink Newcastle Brown, Guinness and even the occasional Snake-bite, although I wouldn't have taken her on in an arm wrestling match 🙈

Sadly can't get this offer in Scotland as the SNP decided we are all alcoholics.

If I were a potential parent I would be royally pissed off with the legislation that forces all children born to have a state appointed guardian, to 'work alongside' the parents. Social services, the ultimate symbol of a nanny state, elevated to Orwellian proportions. I like Scottish people, generally, so I say this with a heavy heart: The sooner jockland has its independence the better. The last thing we want here, south of the border, is infection with this kind of bullshit.

There's a lot that's good up here, but also a lot that's wrong which seems to happen when any government has been in power for too long. Not convinced independence will ever happen. Considering all the brexit nonsense keeps rolling on and we've only been in the EU 40 odd years, can you imagine the grief in sorting something that's been around 300 years. Anyway, enough politics, the important thing is there's bloody good whisky up here.

Anyway, enough politics, the important thing is there's bloody good whisky up here. Yes, it would be very interesting to see what would happen following a 'leave' vote. Personally I was disappointed when the referendum result was 'remain'. Not because I feel any antipathy towards Scotland; I don't. I'm probably like many English, have a fairly neutral feeling about the Scottish. I do feel it's different up there though, a sense of nationalism is quite common along with a feeling that 'being governed by the English' doesn't sit too well. Other than the complications you mention, should there be a split, the only reasons I can see in favour of a continuing union are history and sentimentality.

I remember Cherry B, seemed to do the job. I had the misfortune of meeting a girl whose drink was brandy and babycham. This was expensive. What the hell, she seemed up for it. I remember coming up again rather sharpish, a combination of the worst aspects of brie and a dogfish that had been lying around too long.
