Moses didn't give directions 'cos what bloke follows or accepts directions.

There was a third type of woad, the woad to the Isles.

Our story also clearly demonstrats the connection between Jews and tailoring, but also how come the Picts thought they were so special, namely their holy origins. Which also explains where the giant chickens originated - Israel !! There we had chicken broth, thought to have originated when a chicken in Beersheba fell ill. It got better after a healthy chicken was done away with to make the broth, or soup (as it came to be known) which brought the sick chicken back to health.

On the arrival in Scotland, this custom eased into a general broth. But gereal broth was not thought an appealing name for it. So the Picts invented Picth, a drink hard to pronounce. So, givemn the name of the country, they called it whiskey. Then when the country was renamed Scotland (we'll get to England later - first things first), the soup was called bouillabaise, but people couldn't pronounce it and the Pict Academy was dumped. Pict broth sounded like a silly description, hence scotch broth. The recipe for chicken soup got stolen by English soup thieves in North-West London. A neat link back to England, so-m-named because S,C,O and T had already been nicked (Eng. colloqu. for stolen). Also, once Scottishland was established, the new country to the south thought they had a fresh angle (=Engle) on what to do with chickens.

(At this point, my current manuscript source stops abruptly on account of it's bed-time.)
