Title: A Hap-Hap-Happy Day
Post by: pikilily on July 16, 2011, 07:36:37 pm
Bouncing about, all smiley smiley  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

I made two lovely new friends today!! Had a ball !!!  Looked at some Pugly sheep, and had a laugh trying to work out whether the 'Best Pairs' in the cattle ring meant 'handler and beast'.. or something else ???? :o :o :o :o. Cheered like a gang of kiddies at the Chariots of Fire, and the Dog races...

Oh dear - I just dont get out enough!!   ::) ::)

I would smile, but I still haven't got over my disappointment that the entries in the "Best British Blonde" category weren't quite what I had been hoping for! :D

Acht noo quinie! theres nowt tae a wee bitty oh thae teuchter! Aye its ah a grand language.

Dis oniebodie ken fit wey BC newsreaders and presenters can aw pronoonce "Bach", bit gey near nane o them can say "Murdoch" richt?

Heirs a wee jockie fir ye!

Two Aberdonian farmers, Tam and Rab, are sitting in the Farmers bar drinking beer. Tam turns to Rab and says, "Ye ken fit? I'm tired o'gan through life athoot an education..
I'morn, I think I'll go doon to the squeel and sign up for some nicht classes." Rab thinks it's a good idea, and the two leave.

The next day Tam goes down to the school and meets the Lecturer, who signs him up for the four basic classes: Maths, English, History, and Logic."

Logic?" Tam says. "Fit's at?"

The Lecturer says, "I'll show you. Do you own a Strimmer?" "Aye""
Then logically because you own a Strimmer, I think that you have a Garden.

Tam replies, "At's true, I div hae a Gairden."
"I'm not done," the Lecturer says. "Because you have a Garden, I think logically that you would have a house."
"Aye, I dee huv a hoose."


"And because you have a house, I think that you might logically have a family."

"i hiv a femily."


"I'm not done yet. Because you have a family, then logically you must have a wife."

"Man! Yer nae wrang!! I div hae a wife!!"


"And because you have a wife, then logically you must be a
heterosexual."


"I am that! a heterosexual. That's amazin'!! You were able to find a'that oot, jist 'cos huv a strimmer."


Excited to take the class now, Tam shakes the Lecturers's hand and leaves to meet Rab at the pub.

He tells Rab about his classes, how he is signed up for Maths, English, History and Logic..
"Logic?" Rab says, "Fit's at? "Tam says, "I'll show ye. Do you huv a strimmer?"

"No."

"Well then, yer a poof.

Well you're a lot younger than me if you went to Hazlehead - it was Aberdeen Academy when I was there lol

Born and brought up City Centre, then when the kids were on a longer leash(scooters) we moved to Ellon (not far from Potterton, and my cousin lives there), then across to Old Rayne, then down here - not far from you, so we can maybe meet up for a blether sometime - Perth would be about half way maybe.  perhaps we should have a TAS meet up there?

LOL, Sandy!!...small world.. That stained glass studio would have been mine...unless another one has been set up since! quite possibly.
We did do a lot of windows for houses, pubs, churches  and businesses etc in Scotland, but mainly in the Central Belt.. one of our windows was in the Alloa Business Centre for example. We also replaced all the leaded windows in The Gean when it was being done up...moons ago!
