Today I woke up feeling ... so hungry! And I arrived at the office and my colleagues have bought a lot of croissants!

What about you guys? How did you wake up this morning?

Well @jonsie  you best get ready to deploy your time warp shield. Manchester airport was covered in snow yesterday...flights are delayed and the snow plows are working overtime. All so they can welcome you home my good man

People get offended because they know are wrong and are too proud to admit it or previous lessons in life have taught them to react accordingly a situation whether they believe it to be or not.

With that in mind, people who **bleep** off Scots and Haggis offend me. It's hard work catching the wee blighters.

Wetherspoons have a Burns Night promotion to celebrate Scots & Haggis ..... I'm very tempted togo as I've never tasted the food, is it a sort of stuffing?

As regards Scotland, I have many memories of family holidays there inclucing Lossiemouth near Inverness, Kirkudbrightshire - the special very north of the country where yes I did go to John o Groats - the Kyles of Bute & the Trossachs to name a few, not to mention the mightyiness of Glencoe with the piper playingthere 

are we on the right thread here anticpated - I didn't know you were Scottish - do you have your own tartan

I live in Skipton, known as the Gateway to the Dales, but I'm originally from coal mining country ie Castleford West Yorkshire

what kind of accent do you have ..... I still retain my broad Yorkshire accent though I've lived in Skipton, North Yorkshire for over 21 years ..... I would love to do the Charles Rennie McIntosh thing in Glasgow, but I do find the Glasweigan accent hard to understand sometimes 

you should  be proud of your roots, I am :womanvery-happy:

today I woke up feeling the warmth of the sun upon my face ..... = ..... no cold nose as anticipated yesterday evening - either my nose or my cat Marty's lolz

the hills surrounding Skipton look lovely, as if they have been dusted in icing sugar

not to tempt fate utd we have only had 2" of snow last Wednesday night

my son in Leeds has had it bad

saw a vidoe clip of the M62 between Leeds & Huddersfield & it was logjam

thinking of you @jonsie ..... I know you are a seasoned traveller of the world, but all the best for a good journey back to your Lancashire home

My dear sir,  I have been offended by experts!  You really have some way to go to in that particular art which I have a feeling does not come naturally to you by any means!  

---

You mean that I still haven't succeeded in offending? I really must try harder. ...... who can I offend today. .....

I know just the person lol

I have discovered that if I activate my secret offence-defence strategy before signing in to O2 Community my skin becomes as impenetrably thick as my skull.

If I told you what was in Haggis, you wouldn't eat it. And that's the awful truth.

@anticpated.....

Haggis, a national dish of Scotland. A haggis is actually a large spherical sausage made of the liver, heart, and lungs of a sheep, all chopped and mixed with beef or mutton suet and oatmeal and seasoned with onion, cayenne pepper, and other spices. The mixture is packed into a sheep's stomach and boiled.

Yum Yum....

Many many many years ago when I was in Primary School I had a little metal pencil case. The photo on the front was a fishIng port called Pittenweem, Fife. I have always wanted to visit it but I suppose it is no longer the picturesque place I remember from that photo.
