Stevie Winwood left school with a Higher Love.
And Stevie Wonder had a Higher Ground, so he could have had decent career as a barista.

There's a definite hint of 3 teams being cut adrift.
Tuesday v Motherwell will be fairly vital, even at this stage.

.... and asked about his thoughts on Motherwell just spoke about what St Mirren did to beat Celtic last week. Absolutely obvious he's not got a clue about us.
...where "us" = everyone outwith two Glasgow clubs

When I did my O Grades in 1971 there were separate Maths and Arithmetic qualifications.
Being a bit more academic in those days (and about the same vintage) I added O Grade Statistics to those two.
And well done Granny. It's always been a real PTTGOMN for me that people in this country used to refer to having O Levels. No they didn't - not unless they took English exams.

Should it not be "laws of arithmetic"?
...or "Laws of Statistics"? That's what the average pedant would opt for. (Or is that mean?)

Final standings clearly laid out so that BBC pundits can sort of understand some of it

Would make a good thread in itself, that. Most embarrassing 90 mins as Scotland fan. Very dependent on age of course but for me. England 5, Scotland 1. 1975.
Any mention yet of Frank Haffey? Me, little, sitting in kitchen, David Francie (?) on radio explaining why a life of football supporting misery lay ahead.

Anyone on here had the delights of experiencing childbirth? Having sat in on one I have to say it must top most things in the can't-stop-screaming pain spectrum. I can still hear the scissors urgently chopping through flesh to widen the passage.

The world mourns : Part 327
Watching Athletico v Real on ITV4. Diego Simeone dressed fully in appropriate black. Good man.
And this was the only Freeview channel I could find at 8pm which had anything to see. Good programming.
(0-2) at 36 minutes.

You bandit! Stop picking on the old guy. Are you the Celtic fan that wished that @Jacksgranda had passed away?
In footballing terms, I guess that even @Jacksgranda could have out-passed Celtic on the field today.

I’ll assume in the interest of impartiality the BBC have been discussing the merits of ditching the monarchy?
Caught a bit of todays exciting road trip coverage. Martin Geissler broke through the "Oh look there's people on a bridge" commentary and did point out that not all of the country (Scotland) was keen on a continuation of the monarchy. It was agreed that this was a discussion for another day (aka "Huad yer wheest Geissler").
Also he added knowledge that our southern BBC presenters couldn't match. "Where about are we now Martin?"... "I can tell you from my great knowledge of service stations and toilet stops that we are....". Might see the end of his BBC career.

I assumed that expected disrespecting of the silence would have been a big factor. Doubt it would have been limited to those two though. I’d like to think that a good section of Pittodrie would have done disgraceful scenes.
Seems that Tynecastle have set the precedent. But you're right - very few grounds in Scotland have an absence of bampots.

A great bit of research, @HibeeJibee. Thanks for that - it's the sort of stuff that makes this thread..

Think its about time we reminded ourselves there are people who want to mourn the queen
Interesting to see that Robert Maxwell - coincidentally a man renowned for his financial mismanagement - still was able to borrow enough to buy a brick.
Haud on. Brain Wilson at Ibrox???

There's a wee disparity in the immediate availability of health care between us and them. A touch of irony in the positioning of these two reports.

And is that a misspelling of Michael? Or is that is parents idea? Even with the lower case M.
Edit: I've just noticed that bennett doesn't use a capital letter on his name. Could they be related? Or one and the same?

I have the same birthday as my younger granddaughter (25/12)
Judged more P&J school debates than anyone (apart from Norman Harper)
Once played on the same stage as Jeff Beck (not at the same time, sadly)Norman Harper! A true cultural reference. Mrs B once had a mention in his column.
Can you tell us the name of your band (just in case Jeff is reading this and wants you for a reunion gig)?

I thought I'd missed my chance to go to university, but our Chinese friends are back with loads of offers on the Premier League forum.
You live and learn, Sarge, quite often the hard way - particularly if in response to the said Tong ads.

See the PapaJohns Pizza ads wrapping the STV Sports news? In the football one (towards the end) a woman takes a hoof at the ball and an opponent then dances forward on one leg in an attempt to block the shot long after it's gone. I know it's an advert. I know it's not from a real game. But (a) it's not a great advert for the women's game and (b) it quite irrationally grates on my pettyness gland. I now wait for it every time so I can be irked once more.

The shitebags at NHS Lothian have had a no-smoking policy at ERI for years but only enforced it on staff, not patients. The groups of wheelchair & intravenous drip-bound folk puffing away at the main entrance are a lovely sight to behold.
Walking into ARI was like coming onto the stage for "Stars in Their Eyes".
Tonight, Matthew, I'm having a lung removed.

Feelings as expressed above. One of my all time favourites and for some reason greatly under appreciated by many.
