aye bochan how aboot sellin some of those cakes on this site in aid of the football team?
if ye sold them to the other villages maybe it would slow the players down enough for the old crofters tae catch them!

[Snoddy]

Dear Mr Morenish,

Taking an educated guess, I would say that Mrs Bochan had already produced a good few cakes for the said football team. An unspecified number of these delicacies were probably not baked in the oven, but wrapped up loosely in a cloot and boiled for three & a half hours in a large, heavy based pot until they expanded to fill the well floured cloths.

With limited availability of quality players, the management have allegedly resorted to fielding a number of these bi-legged dumplings against some of Argyll's finest athletes.

Lady Snoddy had suggested donating a doilly lined, Royal Doulton platter of cream puffs or fruit cakes, but I advised her that there was already more than an eloquent sufficiency occupying space in the Wellpark Pavilion.

dear god snoddy you were a brave man!

What the devil's going on here? Bochan & bubbly have made more short, sharp waves in the metaphorical china teacup and rattled another sensitive soul's napper off the increasingly chipped rim.

Another poor, Southern, soul, could quite easily have been left mentally scarred for life. That pair of mischief makers should carry a health warning. Just as well we have a few spare metaphorical saucers lying around to pick up the metaphorical drips as they dribble down towards the clean floor. I jeest cannae stand a mess you understand.

You know, during the summer, I was sitting eating my breakfast in a hotel in Portree in Skye. This fella, who looked like a roond Paul Young (of the singing fame or infamy) came in for his breakfast. Immediately, something about his gait and posturing made me realise that I didn't like the cut of his jib. Neither did the prim, reserved waitress seem very impressed by his performance.

Anyway, he was joined by another fella, who was like a cross between Frank Zappa, Ronnie Wood & Leslie Crowther.

Roond Paul Young turned to Ronnie Crowther and said to him: 'I find the women up in Scotland very interesting, but for some reason, all of the blokes seem to be right twats. Maybe you as a Scotsman, could tell me why?'

Well, Frank Wood pondered for a moment, as he savoured his Jaffy Kippers,and replied: 'Have you ever considered that it may have something to do with the way that you relate to these people, and how they perceive youself? It does seem to be a bit of a sweeping statement. How many people are we talking about?'

'Well I suppose it was only around 20 guys,' said Paul Young, 'But I haven't spoken to many more.'

I'm not quite sure what this told us about the unfortunate traveller, but I personally cannot see much sense in him making the return journey North. I mean, if he was to pick a Scottish wife, he would find that she would be jeest as nesty once she got her feet under his kitchen table doon South.

By the way Bochan, you were right, thon Witchnettle is away with the fairies!

When this stuff happens bubbly backs off, the others aren't around, take-a-pop isn't around to take a pop at, so where are they all?

Just think of it. If they aren't here, they are OUT THERE! Don't you think its better that they are here where we can keep an eye on them?

[Sanyanya]

I'm almost sure that I overhead Bochan Mor in the Glen saying that he was taking the family on holiday to Manchester. Something to do with Christmas shopping I presume. I went there once, but it's much to far for the pony now, and with the short daylight hours, would take too many days.

The pickings must have been good at the fishing, or I don't suppose Mrs Bochan would let him go anywhere, her being the dominant one!

As it should be! Mrs. Bochan.. you go girl!

[bubbly jock]

bubbly backs off,

Och lassie I'm still here

When these fragile souls who are so easily offended go in a huff or weep all over the threads it is best to leave them 'till the paper skin heals. I don't go off screaming tae the mods that I have been insulted when folks are quite open about wanting tae murder me.

When you dabble wae the big boys it's best tae have your tackety boots on and I'll print on here the way I speak if the notion takes me.

As my old granny used to say. Do not offend dragons because you are crunchy and taste good with bread sauce but don't let them fry you in the first place.

[Bobbie En Tejas]

Bubbly, you always make me laugh.. (well.. usually)

How can anyone want tae murder ewe?? They say one good laugh a day adds years to your life (okay, maybe they said minutes, but in either case.. makes you live longer). You keep it up and I'll be around for a long time.

But hell, if I keep laughing with you they may want tae murder me too!

[bubbly jock]

But hell, if I keep laughing with you they may want tae murder me too!

Naw naw hen you'll be alright if your a stranger tae the toon, well at least 'till the honeymoon period is over and then they might lynch you

Hypothetically speaking you understand
