Glasgow Holiday fortnight

[DEL]

Is that Glaswegian, 'Short-Bread',.. The hardest & heaviest material known to mankind! .. Then I am not surprised the Romans gave up! ... Too heavy to bloody lift it!

Steady on there Mark, wars have been started on less......
Aye, fight and you may die, run, and you'll live... at least a while. And dying in your beds, many years from now, would you be willin' to trade ALL the days, from this day to that, for one chance, just one chance, to come back here and tell our enemies that they may insult our wives, but they'll never insult... OUR BISCUITS!

Ron, why did you imagine the fair would be dry for the first time since the Triassic period?

We live in forlorn hope here

Hadrians Wall is largely constructed of shortbread

I have no idea what you are talking about, but I wish you luck.

I'm sure Mark is enjoying his cigars and brandy and the solitude that comes from having no friends on his side of the continent.

What....none at all?

You've posted a nice pic of some Kiwi's there Del, bit like posting some kilted Welsh or Irish.
But here's a pic of a well known West Australian trying to get his extra leg over ~

Fair enough!

Seeing that Mark has brought us full circle ..... back to 'Fair', .... today is the Glasgow Fair Monday Holiday and in my garden as I post (ain't wifi great) it's pushing 80 C at times with the sun being reflected off the wall. I'm eating biscuits and nice cheeses and sadly drinking the last of my Cantillon beers.
I might be dead and in heaven 'cos normally at this time of year in Raintown I'd be ankle deep in puddles.

 

[Tubby-Nuts2]

Del! ....By all means make the most of it! .... However, please refrain from wearing 'Budgie-Smugglers',. or 'Boulder-Holders' , especially if you have guests! .. somehow the sausages may not be a popular choice of food! more so with, 'Plum Tomatoes'.

Regards,

Mark

Next will the customary "taps aff".

I see myself as more in the Buzzard-Smuggler end of the spectrum Mark
Food reference reminds me of another Ingolstadt story. Waiting for our flight home Ron, Davie and me were relaxing over a few beers at the Munich Airport Beer Garden.
When at the next table an extremely attractive young lady sat with her equally attractive friend and ordered a plate of Spargel (White Asparagus )in cream sauce.....get where I'm going with this? Anyway along it came, meeting all our hopes and expectations in respect of size and shape. Did she pick each spear up and pop the tasty morsel slowly into her mouth...... no ..... she looked straight at us and chopped the asparagus into pieces stabbed each with a fork before gnashing on them ......... the effect was triple vegetable castration

Next will the customary "taps aff".

That happened half an hour ago in celebration of finding another 2 bottles of Castillon Geuze in the cellar

I'm picturing it like this

 

[Tubby-Nuts2]

Del ! .. On the one hand you say 'Buzzard Smugglers', .. yet on the other you mention 'Asparagus', ?? ... You do know and realise where I could go with this. . But with respect to yourself, I shan't. (Although very tempted)

No problem ....... we were regarding the Spargel as being 1/12 representations.

That's pretty much it
