Great photos. It really is a beautiful part of the world.
Reminds me I have a hotel break in Glencoe we have not used yet 🙂

Nice to see there has been no Nimrod Victor interface in the recent weather.

He had a problem with hyper inflation too. I hope they dont go mad printing the `Salmonds` 🙂

I like that idea a lot. The good thing about it is, there are so few people effected it will have no negative effect on the vote and may encourage a `yes` from those that are being held to ransome by the land owners.

Sky is a money making corporation so they’d do anything to get more viewers, which they kinda need anyway because they’re not getting the number of viewers they’re targeting for.

Good ! I hope Sky loses a ton of money and drops the F1 channel, then the BBC can pick up all of the races at a reasonable price again.
I guess we can forgive Martin Brundell and let him come back too 🙂

Some 63 per cent of voters called for a ballot on Scotland’s next head of state in the event of separation, with only 22 per cent saying the royals should be retained without question.

I am all for this 🙂 –

Senior SNP backbencher Christine Grahame has suggested the party has always had a secret plan to hold referendum on the monarchy should the country opt for independence.

She also recently quipped that the Queen should be replaced by Aberdonian singer Annie Lennox, saying she was a “great humanitarian” and a “sensible person” with a “great voice”.

I will now re-enter the discussion with spell check back in action. Thank you for filling in Moggy 🙂
I see the inevitable **** storm erupted from a simple discussion about currency.
What is all the arguing about ?
Scottish independence is the right thing to do but the wrong decision.
Salmond is the right man to gain independence but the wrong person to run the country.
Impounding Trident – I guess they could just sail away, lobbing one over their shoulder as they go.
A moat at Scotch Corner – That might give them a little more land than they are actually entitled too.

My opinion for what its worth. An independent Scotland is everything I have ever wanted (the inevitable financial crash aside) for my own country. Just imagine, no royal family, no conservative government, no southern bias on spending ….. and all the Haggis, Lorne sausage and tatty scones I could eat 🙂

I dont think it does Charlie. I used Button as an example because of their similar driving styles and approach to racing. They are both smooth, consistent drivers, who will get the maximum performance from a car by using engine and tyre management, working with the team on development and set up etc. Hamilton, Raikkonen and Alonso I do not doubt could have won the championship with last years Red Bull car but I do not think they would have won as many races because they are `racers` and prone to crashes, racing incidents, penalties and inconsistent qualifying.
