Gotta put my own hands up to this one. Sorry. I thought it would have been too obvious for the paper too, but no. Guess I'm off their Christmas card list now.



Don't you be worrying your head about Christmas cards. By the time Good King Wasoncealass staggers over the horizon and trudges up the Glen to the sound of Cat Stevens: 'Carradale Man cries Puma, but admits to acting the GOAT' will be very much yesterday's news. Mind you, there's a good chance that you'll make the headlines again when they fill the blank pages with a round up of the years most topical photos in Demember (No press releases, adverts, journalists, or cars for sale available during the holiday period. The General will no doubt be in a position to verify that).

UFO's buzzing the Aqualibrium? They've got to keep the alien bodies somewhere now that Machrihanish is closed, after all. :)

How about Nessie visiting Campbeltown Loch on her summer holidays?

Only kidding. You still got your bike? Not very nice weather for riding at the moment.

My Bandit's got some nasty patches of rust that I'm looking to sort out over the winter months, ready for next year.

Now young man, I seem to recall having to rise from my precious slumber to deal with you during one of your excursions to those dreadful Disco dances held in the early 1980s. I also recollect that you were one of a large party of young men and women from the town who helped to lead the youth of the village astray, arriving laden with fermented apple and grape juice, some which may even have been distilled to a higher level.

The initial batch was usually consumed in the barn outside the hall door, and the rest passed through the hall windows by the last man through the door. The landlords in the local watering holes were far from impressed, as they never even gained any benefit from the supply chain. It was often on the agenda at the Community Council meetings, but the shops at the pier and the back of the bake house seemed happy enough as the sales of Dunsade and Lucosade would increase proportionally with the number of hangover cures dispensed by yours truly.

You seem to have been posting at some un-godly hours on this forum. Hopefully you are not still thinking that you are as young as you were then, and that you are only acclimatising yourself for your move to the Southern Hemisphere.

Anyway, I'm contemplating setting up a website for dispensing across the globe. If anyone would like to leave their email address, then I will ensure that you are bombarded with a liberal amount of direct marketing literature highlighting a wide choice of legal recreational medications.

Did I really say 'Liberal', I must be losing my marbles, now where is my blue rosette and Union Jack? Sorry, I almost forgot, you never reported on the efficacy of the lotion dispensed, was it whole effective?

Any resemblance to Snoddy's past and present are purely coincidental!

I am emailing my bosses in Australia in the early hours finalising things,as for drinking I have the occasional pint of beer :wink: but every thing in moderation these days after all I am 45 :shock:

I've just had an enjoyable weekend in Trumpton despite getting near washed oot of the tent in the rain.

Noted towerist attractions included;

Oman's broken windae (since March 2005?). :oops:
Patterson's broken windae (now a fruit'n'veg "feature"?). :oops:
The Cruban's broken windaes (3 in the one door). :oops:
The waste oil tank on the quay that has been overflowing for about 3 years (at least)? :oops:
The broken edging on the quay that has rotted away. :oops:
The badly vandalised bus shelter. :oops:
The piles of scrap down the shore road that haven't moved for a decade. :oops:
Having my car stoned by local kids near the bus shelter as I drove up from Port Righ. :oops:
Being turfed out of the Glen on Friday night because of the kids 8pm rule (Our party of 5 plus 3 other customers there at the time). I believe this is a house rule and not a legal requirement? :oops:
Buying a paper from a gentleman who's blue shirt had more black inside the collar than the waste oil tank. :oops:
The Network Centre being closed on the Glasgow September holiday weekend. :oops:
The selection of vegetables in Paterson's that were fresh around about October 1963 :oops:

Would anybody care to comment on the above attractions? :oops: :oops: :oops:
Ye'll huv hud yer tea?
