    Some sh1te on BBC TV in the business class lounge, at Bahrain airport.

    The music is cr@p, but the whisky is good.

    Sad, but unsurprised, to read KB is on his way. Good luck to the guy, but is scottish football not sick. Gus should drop him 'till he goes.

  4. Public Clocks In Paisley

    in General Nonsense

    Posted

    Did the Sherwood not used to have one?? I seem to remember being able to check whether you were late for school on it or not walking up Greenlaw - I know the tower was falling down about 15 years ago and they took it down and put that stupid looking metal thing on top instead.

    The clock at Sherwood (now called Sherwood-Greenlaw) was taken down about 20 years ago, when the steeple became unsafe. It was returned to the council, who owned it.

    The "stupid looking metal thing" at the top of the church's stump was erected about 15 years ago, as part of the church centenary celebration. During that project there was talk of restoring the clock to its original position. But, if I remember correctly, it didn't happen because the council would not agree to its ongoing maintenance.

    If I've done this correctly then the image above will change every day - and you filfthy animals out there can discuss the merits, or not, of the lady in question :P

    Should fairly boost the hits, that is "hits" on e-saints B)

    Guess it was inevitable, but the Oman censor has now blocked the link to our burd of the day. Merry Christmas to them. Some people really need an examination.

  11. Phone Calls From Your Pc

    in e-Saints

    Posted

    I often use Skype to call Oman to UK, USA and Thailand. Much cheaper than Omantel, and the quality of connection varies. (The other caller often cannot hear me.) Best time to call seems to during weekend mornings (Oman time, GMT+4) ... before the septic tanks get out of bed to clog things up.
