My head would never have gone soft with Britt Ekland

In many ways I hope not. I’m sure there are loads of us that met him and I really liked him when I spoke to him. Even if you bumped into him in Costa or at the Millburn Chinese he would always have a Good natter and came across as a really decent guy. I hope for him and his young family he finds something that he enjoys as he always came across well

It was good to see a couple of the young uns and their flags and drum on Saturday hopefully one or two more will start coming back

Just a new beginning. With all the reasons for going to football being given I think people have missed the most important of the lot. It beats having to go shopping with the wife

Brilliant response had me in stitches

Are you not thinking of the Clahaig Inn at glencoe for obvious reasons. The sign on the door said no hawkers dogs or Campbell but eventually dogs were allowed in. Pretty harsh on the Campbells in my opinion couldn’t wish for nicer people

Was a great dance floor upstairs

Think there is only about 5 yrs between us you obviously thought it was more as I look so much younger The building was quite well on when I started my apprenticeship but there was a huge amount of the internal plumbing cast iron work etc still to be done. I must admit I really enjoyed that part of my apprenticeship and it sets you up in good stead for working on old historic Scotland buildings etc where Cast is still used though it is getting rarer to see as due to cost etc other products like alumasc and pvc etc can be made to look like Cast and are a lot lighter and cheaper to install I dare say a lot of apprentices nowadays wouldn’t really know how to do it but then again I don’t suppose they need to. Spent a lot of time 80s 90s taking out old lead pipework replacing with alkathene but there are s still houses to this day we come across lead. Not really allowed to take out the moleskin cloth anymore and wipe joints etc plastic fittings no lead allowed

Oops and meant to say the D Campbell was my uncle David not sure why he was a Doonie though he was a good bit older than my dad. Maybe he’d already left home and stayed on the other side by then

My dad won the Orkney Ba one year can’t remember if it was the Christmas Day or New Year’s Day one I must ask him again. He was an uppie not a doonie as my Gran lived in George Street in front of the bignold park Yes IBM same name too I used to always get called young Les as an apprentice and he was guess what OLD LES

We must have been watching the jags at the same time pretty much. Even when it wasn’t the best you could always nip over to the Corrie for a pint at half time

Not the best of ties but at least it’s at home. Would be nice to see some playing improvement by then but not overly confident and with them having Hartley in charge they will be buoyant. When does our new manager bounce start ?

The quarter fina draw takes place today at 1 pm and I think it’s live on Facebook if anyone uses it Teams left ICT Dumbarton Crusaders Falkirk Queen of the South Raith Rovers The New Saints Dundee United Some pretty tough ties there but we are only two games away from the final even if we have been playing poorly. I’d love a home tie to give us a chance of going to the semi. I realise the contest is much maligned but it’s still a trophy and a great day out Probably TNS or Raith Rovers look like the obvious choices but who does everyone else fancy. It will be good to talk about something other than Saturdays incident

Think he meant height don’t think Girth was mentioned

We reckoned about 50 to 80

I understand where you are coming from but if two f the young ones went at each other in view of the fans would they be treated as leniently Can’t be one rule for some and not the others, I’m sure there have been lots of youngsters that have seen the photos or indeed seeing it happen on Saturday that would not have liked any kind of violence. Could you imagine you’re own young kids asking you if it’s alright to hit on the football pitch then it’s alright to hit in the stands. It’s the same stadium surely the same rules or is that not an acceptable argument

Am I bad. I love the word fuctard I’m going to use it on a couple of building sites I’m going to be on soon Cheers

100% with you in this one The feel good factor after his run and then the goal was Just Great nice to see a lad from Millburn doing so well. I’m fairly sure Ryan Christie was there as well they must be doing something right at the school training

Doesn’t count they were Irish ?

Quite interesting that my daughter who isn’t really remotely interested in football came home last night from uni and after the usual great to be back home etc pretty much the first thing she said was how all her lecturers and fellow students at uni were talking about our team saying how disgraceful it is to see that happening and it’s something you only see at Sunday league level. Social media makes things travel fast for sure. Oh for the days of b&w tv again

Maybe Polly took the last pie

Will we be answerable to the spfl over this as there is photo evidence and I would think they would take a dim view about it if so
