Surprisingly drinkable coming from a new town full of electronics factories.

I didn't think he'd drop as far as HL level.

As and when the player in question gets an injury, will the local papers have the balls to go with the back page headline "Cox out"?

You wouldn't actually chant "Insert score here"

I think I'm right in saying that pretty much all the casks used in Scotch are foreign, having previously been used for bourbon or sherry. But I know exactly what you are meaning, port or madeira finish etc. Don't like them at all myself, you can't really beat the original.

Recently got through a bottle of Strathmill which I got as a present. I'd never tried it before but it was very nice. I also have another present, a Highland Park 25yo, still unopened. ( TBH I'd have been a bit disappointed if they'd given it to me already opened). I'll save it for special occasions, but I suspect that deep down I won't enjoy the taste as much as the basic 12yo which is an all time favourite. As an "everyday" tipple I'm very partial to a Grouse and Ginger Ale. If any of you old duffers think that's bad, in my younger days it was Grouse and Irn Bru. Still a class above JD if you ask me. Why do young Scots drink Jack Daniels when there are so many better whiskies around? [Note to JD drinkers. Drinking it does NOT turn you into Slash or any other JD swilling idol you may have.]

Lionel.

What happens if he lives for many years to come? It's far from unheard of in people who gave been given months to live. Anyway, where did the Libyans get all those Scottish flags from at such short notice? I can't imagine they are widely available in the shops in that part of the world in the same way that American flags seem to be (and which are made from highly flammable material!).

How much will we have if and when we pay out the ?350k CaleyD referred to earlier for the Marius case? [Rhetorical question]

All I can think of is Freuchie winning a national tournament for villages, about 20 years ago.

Unless Harkins has a release fee specified in his contract, which is a distinct possibility. If a top 6 SPL club were interested, he'd want out in a second, and his agent would surelt have thought of that when the contract was being negotiated.

The fact that MFR were even mentioning the cricket was surely good enough reason to switch them off!

I think a lot of sources got the subs wrong because they used the team lines which had the subs numbers muddled up.

Getting back to the subs mystery, both Mike and myself seem to think it was: Ross for Eagles Rooney for Hayes Morisson for Proctor McBain and Allison were unsused subs. Any advance on that? Cox definitely got a yellow, wasn't it for taking Hart down near half way when they were breaking?

It was fairly belted towards their keeper from 50 yards or so, but I don't know if it was intended as an attempt on goal or a pass. Think it was Foran.

I thought Ross came on for Eagle, but might have mistaken him for Morrison. Hayes went to left wing at this point. Rooney then came on for hayes, I thought. Then Proctor went off after the clash of heads, and I didn't recognise the replacement but I'm sure it was a youngster.

The stadium announcer said Allison! It certainly wasn't Allison, Rooney, McBain or Ross, so by a process of elimination it must have been Morrison.

Oh, and our old boys Hart and Kerr did NOTHING!

Cracking game of football, end to end stuff and both sides had plenty of chances to win it. But at the end I was very relieved to hear the whistle - their subs strengthened them whilst ours tended to weaken us. In the first half we were miles better than them and should have been ahead. Hayes, Foran and Sanchez were combining superbly up the right, with neat passing, dummies and great touches to carve them open repeatedly. second halh was different though, as the players tired. Sanchez little in the 2nd except miss our best chances of the game. Great performances by Munro, Foran, Hayes, Cox and Lionel. Hard to pick a MOM. Only negative was Eagle. Dundee were something of a one man team - Harkins is a helluva a player to have at this level though.

england are going to win this, which following precedent means they are all going to get knighthoods, OBEs etc.

These accounts will include the money received for Marius, as well as the Euro 2008 money, but they will probably also include a provision for the legal cases going in his favour which will pretty much cancel out the transfer profit.

Oh how we celebrated when Kenny Ritchie returned!

The celebrations last night were entirely predictable, to everyone except our naive Scottish Government it would seem. Out of their depth on matters like this.

At least the result won me a few quid B)

Perhaps it's Old caley Girl you should be addressing that to. Rather than being proud of a compassionate nation, should she be ashamed of our cack handed politically motivation?
