I don t think Never mind the bollocks was about "**** conceptualism" the concept behind the pistols was situationism ie (in my opinion) replace conventional works of art like concept albums with events designed to shock and provoke the audience. So it was **** elitism and musical techniques/oneupmanship and replace it with something raw and energetic
but basically I am with you findo-gask

I cant deny there are some of these bands and albums I do like (Nick Cave,Radiohead,Animals) but when I see so many listed one after another it makes me really appreciate Never mind the bollocks

Id like to do more conservation type work or maintaining and building trails failing that whisky tasting would be good or custard pie thrower (are you reading this mr clegg) :wink:

This thread is being watched by "interested parties" :wink:

As I said riding in the local woods and found a short piece of narrow twisting,rooty, undulating singletrack that I've never seen before. :P
The truth is out there after all :lol:

Working this weekend so I ll be hiding ahem riding in the local woods

rkk01 Its not the way I was taught history in school either but that was due to a system that ignored large chunks of Scottish history. The system only changed in the mid 70s. Try googling "Treaty of Union 1707"

At the time of the union the scottish people did nt get much say. Instead a few nobles with vested interests decided to line their own pockets… nothing much has changed in 300 years

England,Wales,Northern Ireland and Scotland all joined the United Kingdom as equal nations and if the people of any one of those nations vote to leave the United Kingdom they can do so.

what crikey said+1 I just moved my saddle forward a little and that did the trick

what a bore! for me its motogp everytime

I got a gelert solo and it is light and adequate for an occasional one/two night summer camp. It is very small not really long enough for me (i am 6ft 3) and only had room for a small rucksack at the side had to leave my panniers on the bike the tent is also pretty low the high area is just enough to let you get out without crawling on your belly but for the price I'd give it thumbs up overall

A much better piece of tv tonight and the no bombshell end was a nice touch

It makes me happy 8) and even when it doesnt make me particularly happy it gives a sense of achievement and if most people think I am daft they should try speaking to me then they ll know I AM DAFT

Stumpyjon Its my belief that all 4 nations of the UK could do well separately. Your own nationality is not a part of this discussion that I raised and in a free country anyone should be able to express a view my view is that devolved government (in Scotland anyway) has been a limited success and that I would welcome Scottish independence

stumpyjon The United Kingdom is made up of 4 countries .

I am sorry my previous post about "North Britain" is not relevant as this thread specifically mentions "assembly governments" and not parliaments.

Jack Straw has also refused to attend. Does that make him an ignorant jock too?
He should be so lucky!

Look if you keep nick griffin,nick clegg and "call me Dave" We'll take back Brown and Darling and maybe even Blair if he spends most of the time out of the country but you ll have to hold on to Danny Alexander :D

A small step in the right direction for "North Britain"

It would require an act of parliament (westminster) for a home secretary to make a decision on release of a prisoner from a scottish prison. The home secretary would then be bound by scots law and might well make the same decision as the justice secretary (holyrood).

have you seen obamas poll ratings I would nt waste my time licking his boots

It seems like Megrahi would have been released anyway if his appeal had gone ahead but medical advice was that he would not live long enough or else we could keep a man the doctors said was dying in jail neither of these are attractive choices. I dont like to think that a mass murderer is going free but on balance I support the scottish government decision

the senators are looking to find someone to blame for an industrial disaster, they think BP is a british company it isnt. They think the british government released Megrahi it didnt. If they want to learn more about industrial disasters and culprits going unpunished they should google the word bhopal or http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bhopal_disaster

Sweepy I have read The Return of John Mcnab and most of andrew Greigs other books. I recommend "Kingdoms of Experience" and "Summit Fever" even if your not into climbing also "When they lay bare"

Bury my heart at wounded knee a really great book made me angry :twisted:

Trainspotting, Homage to Catalonia, Electric Brae by Andy Greig are all favourtes of mine but if you really want a book that "made you what you are" maybe I should be thinking of what I read when I was a kid so that would be loads of James Bond novels, Last of the Mohicans and Scorcher

I got a boot version of the tahoes been great so far they re suposed to be waterproof but thats not really been tested yet
