OH WELL THEN

RJG (RJG), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 14:08 (nineteen years ago) link

I see Burton beat Woking, then.

PJ Miller (PJ Miller), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 14:09 (nineteen years ago) link

What do you care?

Madchen (Madchen), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 14:09 (nineteen years ago) link

do the english hate the scots?

RJG (RJG), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 14:18 (nineteen years ago) link

Yes. That is why the English keep voting the Scottish accent as the world's sexiest accent.

Madchen (Madchen), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 14:24 (nineteen years ago) link

you'd think they'd do something more hurtful.

RJG (RJG), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 14:27 (nineteen years ago) link

it's a curse and a burden.

Madchen (Madchen), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 14:36 (nineteen years ago) link

do the scots hate the english?

RJG (RJG), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 15:11 (nineteen years ago) link

That's a bit generalised (I like Madchen, so, no)

ailsa (ailsa), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 15:13 (nineteen years ago) link

do the english hate the germans?

RJG (RJG), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 15:22 (nineteen years ago) link

I was disappointed to learn last night that a team of nitwits from Edinburgh University had beaten the team from Glasgow University some weeks previous.

I think Scotland is a charming region, and its inhabitants of great anthropological interest.

I sometimes go to Burton, Madchen, when I can't get out of it. I thought you knew. A bit of lighthearted banter is all I ever get out of it. Today I have been subtitling a video with footage of a bus on its way to Burton. I nearly announced it to everyone.

PJ Miller (PJ Miller), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 15:44 (nineteen years ago) link

I had no idea about the Burton Connection (it's like French Connection, but upstairs from Dorothy Perkins). Germany has this nice icecream thing called Spaghettieis, so I quite like it there.

Madchen (Madchen), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 15:55 (nineteen years ago) link

I knew two of the Glasgow nitwits!! The Edinburgh team captain was unbearable.

Cathy (Cathy), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 15:58 (nineteen years ago) link

she took it a bit forfar.

RJG (RJG), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 16:03 (nineteen years ago) link

She was pretty, but not terribly bright. I once knew all of a Glasgow team (just after I graduated - I think it was the year they brought back UC) - they were totally dreadful and an affront to such a fine academic institution.

ailsa (ailsa), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 16:08 (nineteen years ago) link

I think Balliol could win it.

Madchen (Madchen), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 16:17 (nineteen years ago) link

Back in my day, the team was stuffed full of GU bigwigs.

I think the Edinburgh captain might have appeared brighter if Paxman hadn't been ribbing her all the time. I didn't fancy her much though. The mysterious lady above her was more my type.

PJ Miller (PJ Miller), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 16:35 (nineteen years ago) link

PJ OTM.

both of the captains had expressions, that they kept doing, that I had a hard time being bothered to try to believe.

balliol(?)'s was very "oh, well, I don't mind" and the edinburgh one (emily drayson, I remember, for some reason) was a bit "hehehehe!".

I bet it was nerves, though, and doubt any of my expressions would hold up, in a similar situation.

RJG (RJG), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 16:47 (nineteen years ago) link

The Glasgow team I knew were the clique from the student paper. They probably thought they were bigwigs, but, er, they weren't.

ailsa (ailsa), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 16:50 (nineteen years ago) link

I was going to type "I don't know anyone, who has been on university challenge" but I did meet one of cathy's pals, who was on, and there was a lady, from architecture (or, perhaps, building science!!), who was on, last year, maybe, and who was in some classes, with me.

RJG (RJG), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 16:52 (nineteen years ago) link

DAPPERS!

Or, perhaps more correctly in this context, Liz:x (or however its supposed to be: I think my colon is out of order)

Mooro (Mooro), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 17:48 (nineteen years ago) link

I don't hate the Scots, I even like some of them a little & a few of them a lot. They are best when they are not hating the English.

Mooro (Mooro), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 17:49 (nineteen years ago) link

I only hate the English when they are being insufferably smug about being better than us at football/rugby/whatever. And then, it's not so much "hate" as "am jealous of".

ailsa (ailsa), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 17:53 (nineteen years ago) link

do the english hate the french?

RJG (RJG), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 18:01 (nineteen years ago) link

I love the french, with their goose livers and their wild boar.

Madchen (Madchen), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 18:06 (nineteen years ago) link

I love a woman speaking English in a French accent.

Mooro (Mooro), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 18:15 (nineteen years ago) link

I love everything.

Ally C (Ally C), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 19:19 (nineteen years ago) link

No you don't. You hate cheese.

ailsa (ailsa), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 19:20 (nineteen years ago) link

I don't hate the english.

RJG (RJG), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 19:50 (nineteen years ago) link

do glaswegians hate apple?

cozen (Cozen), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 19:52 (nineteen years ago) link

I don't hate cheese. I don't hate apples.

Ally C (Ally C), Wednesday, 16 March 2005 00:48 (nineteen years ago) link

OK, but you don't love it either. Therefore YOU ARE A LIAR.

ailsa (ailsa), Wednesday, 16 March 2005 00:53 (nineteen years ago) link

We're all liars, darling.

Ally C (Ally C), Wednesday, 16 March 2005 01:08 (nineteen years ago) link

and you all rally around your common hatred of the americans...

dahlin (dahlin), Wednesday, 16 March 2005 15:41 (nineteen years ago) link

I was thinking about getting an iPod, I think.

RJG (RJG), Wednesday, 16 March 2005 16:01 (nineteen years ago) link

RJG (RJG), Wednesday, 16 March 2005 16:03 (nineteen years ago) link

cozen (Cozen), Wednesday, 16 March 2005 19:58 (nineteen years ago) link

RJG (RJG), Wednesday, 16 March 2005 20:22 (nineteen years ago) link

Will Glasgow be joining us indeed?

Am I allowed to plug the wee club thingy that I am starting up in Edinburgh this weekend?

It's a treaty at Harthill.

KeithW (kmw), Tuesday, 22 March 2005 21:59 (nineteen years ago) link

king of commady.

cozen (Cozen), Wednesday, 23 March 2005 01:48 (nineteen years ago) link

My house, Monday, 2pm, Pecan & Honey/French Vanilla Ice Cream, nearly thirty.

Madchen (Madchen), Saturday, 26 March 2005 13:38 (nineteen years ago) link

You're doing pecan and honey because you found out yesterday I don't eat nuts, aren't you...

(I bought shoes today! In a shoe shop! On a Saturday! What have you done to me?)

ailsa (ailsa), Saturday, 26 March 2005 13:40 (nineteen years ago) link

Wow. Dot to Dot tonight, in Govan, if anyone wants some rock action. You might even get to see the footie first.
