Kat you have opened pandoras box - there's no bottom to it either! The Wee Fluer - hmmm it celebrates courage and tenacity two of Scotland's gifts to the rest of mankind. It is Scotland for me at least. I hope they adopt the Song, besides it has a great melody and is very nice to sing.
Mick you sum up soooo welll.
My favorite quote 'In any case, as even they have noticed, God is no longer indisputably British. The personal relationship between monarch and deity is no longer an article of faith. Times - and countries - change. '
Hmmmm could have fooled me ....'times have changed' sure but nothing else.
'God is no longer indisputably British'
The Irish (no particular religion selected here NOTE) tried telling them that 300 years ago but nobody would listen to them so what makes the author think any one is listening now?
