I was going to say sowwy but I'm not. I stand by my remarks. If I've hurt

an AB were a bunch of self-serving yaahs who brayed like donkeys and
assumed they were born to positions of power and privilege.

Just look him in the eye and give him the beasting he deserves; teach
him to tar everyone with the same brush. When you've finished beasting
him give him to me I'll beast him again, should cement any ridiculous
prejudices, they're obviously never going to change so might as well
have them cast in "stone"! ;-)

...and, no, I'm not [nor former] OTC, I just recognise when someone
deserves a beasting. Yeah, anyone can have their prejudices but taking
it out on an innocent is not on!

A beasting off you? LOL! I'm quaking so much I can hardly type.

Bernie, I'll give you it. Your source material is more reliable than a
manx language website and the "Year Book of the Viking Society for
1912". And yes, fenian, is gibberish - everyone knows it's the name
of the horse that won the Belmont Stakes in 1869. :-)

Hey, please feel entirely free to continue! I was just a little
surprised to find a complete stranger spouting bile at me for no
apparent reason in a NG, but I think I've got the hang of you now ;-)

(p.s. it's spelled c***h***i***p. Comprende?)

No it's spelled s-h-i-p. You know, like Daddys yacht, but bigger.

Woah, university OTC - pretendy officers? Tells me *all* I need to know.
Midges hate "Nigels" and "Nigellas".

If I changed my name to Nigel, would the midges hate me too? Worth a
try!

Quoted message said:

frightened the officers, the midges would have left you alone :-)
Sorry but university OTC makes me laugh, I have to, or else I'd spew.....
Never mind the OP called the Cuillin "serious fells". Fells? What is the
world coming to. Dearie me............

OK Fjell then... Perfectly OK word to describe hills in land that
was once part of Norway - whats the problem.. I call lakes over the
world "lochs" Including Wales and nobody pulls me up..

Get a thesaurus , words other than Hill are acceptable you know..

Because you're too busy pulling yourself. Fell is not a word in use
in Scotland to describe a hill. If you said you were going fell-walking
any Scot would assume you were heading south of the border. If you
asked the Swiss for directions to Loch Geneva you wouldn't get very
far. But then you're so full of yourself you cant see why you're
talking pish.

I begin to detect a pattern here, KRO. Everyone who disagrees with you
is full of themselves. Um, right....

I've never heard anyone describe Faslane as funny before. Eyesore, moral
disgrace, political embarassment, depressing white elephant, or even
(from the lunatic fringe) a necessary evil- all familiar enough
sentiments. 'Funny' is a new one though.

Miniature circuit breakers are more useful on Usenet - easier to

Failing that, a paperclip might solve all these blown-fuse problems.

Ach man, I have never heard of a sea lake? I suppose somebody will tell
me that it is common, however I have sat on the Firth of Thames in NZ.

I used to work on a hill farm over on the Blairmore side of the loch. It
also made me nervous when American's used to drop their missiles in the
Holy Loch, those were the days.
