  1. Good shout. Think it came in a can with a delicious layer of jellied fat. Forgot about the grated cheese. A wee continental touch
  2. My granny used to make a really sophisticated modern thing called, wait till you hear this.....a "salad". It had corned beef, half a boiled egg, wee bit of lettuce (with Heinz salad cream dolloped on top. And chips. Loads and loads of chips.
  3. I think so. Is the new organisation called Reach or some nonsense like that?
  4. According to Private Eye, its lost 61% of its readers since it started its Brexit campaign 10 years ago. Demographics will do for these rags.
  5. Accies don't do 2 wins in a row. Home win. 2-1. 1 red card. Accies players praised for their commitment in post-match interview.
  6. Being sexually interfered with by his Granny, which led to a dark fascination with child abuse.
  7. Put on the Beach Boys and relax, man. Let the youngsters enjoy themselves.
  8. I'm sure I'm not the first to mention it, but if a mob of tooled-up black guys in combat gear tried to storm the Capitol, the reaction of the security forces would have been a bit different.
  9. What about the 50% who are telling the truth? "Man the f**k up!!" is possibly the worst thing you could say to them.
  10. I always made the assumption that most people voted rationally based on their own interests. Recent years have impacted that assumption rather a lot.
  11. Continues the same as every other sector. Only specifically mentioned closing ski centres and cosmetic surgery clinics plus churches. It's nothing like March. Oh well, back to work tomorrow At least the roads will be quiet.
  12. The Doors were one the most fashionable bands throughout the 70s and 80s - appealing to fans of punk, metal, prog et. Uniquely so. But I get the feeling that they are not as highly regarded these days. Maybe the horrific Val Kilmer movie did the damage?
  13. Hyacinth House Touch Me LA Woman Roadhouse Blues Indian Summer
  14. I'm getting terrible with titles. An age thing. So I'll just go with the whole first side of Where You Been? (f**k, I hope I got the lp name right). That used to sort me right out. His guitar rig videos on YouTube are hilarious. Worth watching even if you're not into guitar shit.
  15. I watched the BBC Prom again on iplayer today. Slightly mixed bag, some good performances. Nice to see Scott being recognised though.
  16. Maybe thinking of the special deal that Spice (a very different place) had for old firm fans as mentioned previously by another poster?
  17. Upstairs is a very 80s piano bar. I didn't know about the tips thing. That's bad. The Pir Mahal went the same way. Used to be really good, then one night a waiter who had worked there for years told us straight, as he was serving us, that we shouldn't leave any tip because the owner kept it himself. That was about 20 years ago. It was starting to go downhill anyway.
  18. In the end, we got a Chinese from the A1 Wok at Drumsagard. It was better than I expected, but not quite a Chicken Lasani from Mushtaq's.
  19. Agree. Our best hope is to get our 3 St Mirren points back (hilarious but unlikely) and for the league to be called early again. The other side of the coin is, If they do manage to stay up with this squad, it'll be some achievement.
  20. Oh ok, didn't realise that. Wow, 3 years.... You've still got better players though.
  21. Accies are still favourites to go down in my view. 2 reasons: 1) They are the least likely to change managers if they go on a disastrous run. The others have, or will, as required. 2) The others in the drop zone have at least some cash to spend this month to try and improve the squad (I'm looking at you Ross County). St Mirren are not, sadly, included in this.
