Kazoo players, street artists.... happy days... another great era down the swannie.... We are now so starved of entertainment that 25,000 will actually turn out to watch some boring old fart play his records..... :sleep01: :sleep01:

An interesting theory, Hamish.... and could be a plausible explanation. Has anyone else felt that bars in general are less sweaty since the smoking ban kicked in.... Did high concentrations of tobacco smoke tend to create a sweaty atmosphere?

In the slam tent with Rosco17..??..!! The mind fair boggles.... :001: :001:

The Peppers were in great form at the T in the Park gig, Mee.... too bad you didn't make it down there...(oops!) it's not like there was anything else on that weekend involving musicians..... :015: :015:

Strangely - since the smoking ban took effect Hoots is no longer a sweatbox.... You should try it sometime...!! (ambiguity intended!)

Your living room about the size of Hootenannys, Mee..?? Fantastic... When's the party? Will you invite the Peatbogs & Bongshang? Could be quite a night.....!! :001: :001:

I'm surprised Hootenannys hasn't been mentioned in this thread.... plenty of talented traditional/folk type bands & musicians to be enjoyed in there on a fairly regular basis....even if it costs an arm & a leg for a pint.... :003: :003:

Heilandee.... I do apologise.... What with DFC and your Runrig LP you haven't really got a lot going for you, have you?

Hielandee.... Anyone who can recall a period in time when Dundee FC were considered to be a successful football team belongs in a previous generation, maybe even two.......!! :015: :015:

Mee... Maybe you're heading for some kind of mid-life crisis.... Don't you think dance music of the FBS variety is aimed at a generation, a couple of generations below yours..??!!?? You should really be settling down at night now with your baffies on and listening to the likes of the Jimmy Shand Band.... Now that's real dance music and even comes with a Scottish twist....!!! I'll put a cd together for you featuring some of the best folk/rock around, from the likes of Fairport Convention, plus some great Shetland stuff from bands like Hom Bru, and Rock Salt & Nails.... It will help broaden your horizons and help get you through what is obviously a difficult time for you.....

I don't hate the English either, Jake... I lived in Yorkshire for a few years - made lots of friends - loved the country pubs (and some city ones) .... Had a really enjoyable way of life in fact. The English based football media people tend to stir up problems..... They can't quite grasp that there are 4 separate countries within the UK each with their own identity..... They can only see one - and get so p1ssed off when we don't all get behind that one..... How's the recruitment drive going? Don't you think potential recruits should be made aware of US foreign policy (as long as Blairs in charge) before signing on the dotted line?

Well figured out, Mee....FW's charges are extremely reasonable...!!!!

Not quite sure how I ended up in your mouth...!! So just a few grand for the Peatbogs... Haven't you got that kind of small change under your mattress? :001: :001:

And especially yours...... :015:

Andy was just using Wimbledon to warm up for this one - This is the big one - Nice to see him back on the grass again... :003: :011:

Impeccable Sources? :015: :015: :015: :015:

You're right Mrs P - He should be ditching TC. What he really needs is someone in the know.... Someone with his finger on the pulse to represent him and consider his and ICT's best interests.... Maybe this could be of interest to IHE..... :015: :015:

I take it you mean Afghanistan, Jake? When are you going?

That's exactly what I thought, FW.... In fact I was convinced it was you..... What an incredible likeness..... :003: :003: (For those of you who don't know me I've just cracked a brilliant joke with that post!) :015: :015:

Elgin..?? Too far for me..... But not too far for Mee...!! :001: :001:

Wear a fox hat.....!!!!! :015: :015: :015: :015:

Caley4Eva : I agree..... :003:

I would say you are "spot on" with that, Exiled ICT..... Players should be very wary of signing contracts with agents, and should be absolutely clear as to who receives what in event of a transfer. This kind of situation should never, ever arise....

Sorry - FW.... I can't post the type of jokes on here that you appreciate - there's a lot of decent people log on to this site, and they would be highly offended at the the kind of stuff that appeals to you....!! More good/bad news.... Doctor is doing the rounds at the hospital when he encounters patient Jim..... "Jim", he says "Got some good news & some bad news... The gangrene has got worse and we're going to have to amputate both your feet" "Oh My God", says Jim, "What's the good news?" "Well" says the doc, "There's a guy two beds along from you that wants to buy your shoes"....!!!!!
