Sad but not national headline news going on for days. She was a socialite, nothing more.

I am quite interested in the pistorious stuff. He's a lying toad who squirmed severely today.

Am I the only one sick of Nationalists complaining of being 'bullied?

Are they the only ones who use the word "scaremongering"?

Not that I really want to get political, but I've spent my entire life so far listening to one side or another prefacing comments with 'under the previous Tory/Labour government, etc etc'. Career politicians doing their thing, I suppose.

The scaremongering thing is often a bit silly, but Baron Robertson of Port Ellen's comments the other day? That was yer actual scaremongering in action. I'm not sure how else to classify it.

No big fan of her myself, but I hear she makes a great lasagne. That George Osbourne though? There's a choice. His lasagne is rubbish, by most accounts.

Am I the only one who's had lasagne made with veggie haggis, by the way? It's ever so good.

Am I the only one who is beginning to find the town intolerable? Rude people, cheeky shop assistants, aggressive beggars (one told me to fuck off this morning). Seriously, if I can get in by 9 am and out by 9.30 am, I'm relieved.
