Any chance of you increasing your topic descriptions? People can then make a decision on whether to read or skip your topics and it will also help people locate them later on.

It was Man U he was trying to watch, wasn't it?
I'd blame them then.

Like all major cities in our blessed isles, Glasgow has it's good and bad attributes.
These tend to get polarised when the Old Firm(Rangers & Celtic) play.

If you get speaking to the natives, in order for them to find out which side your on, they'll ask you a few telling questions.

The first one being "What school did you go to?".
If you answer anything begining with Saint, as in St.Bernadettes, that'll tag you as a Celtic supporter.
Answering "King William of Orange High" will have the opposite effect and tag you as a Ranger
Bearing in mind that anyone south of the border who went to a CofE school, might have had a St. in the title, beware, this could lead you into one of two tacks in the outcome of your conversation.
1. You'll end up drinking Guiness & singing Danny Boy, with a new life long pal.
2. You'll end up drinking through a tube in the ICU at the nearest A&E.

If anyone asks what team you support, tell them "Partick Thistle", as it's the other team in Glasgow, and doesn't have any sectarian links, which tends to throw the neds(chavs) a bit.
They'll probably think your also a bit of a psycho for being able to think for yourself and not follow the Old Firm with the rest of the sheep.

Apart from these words of warning, anyone coming up to Scotchland for the gig, have a wonderful time.

Remember to keep an eye out for the 'Urban Haggis' which are a real problem since they started coming into the cities from the Glens, in search of tourists to feast on.

Reason I thought about Parky in first place was Lotte Church was all dressed in black the oher night on her show,so picked up paper next and the grandfather of chat was giving his verdict, as he usually does with any new show that is anything like a chat show,i.e.its not as good as me,not my cuppa,in my day I interveiwed etc,etc.I heard story about Rod Hull given a script by Parkys producers,he ripped it up and went on and did his own thing.
