Thread Name: Bonnie Prince Charlie - Good or Bad
Subject: RE: Bonnie Prince Charlie - Good or Bad
Never did understand or enjoy the plonker words to Flower (flooooor) of Scotland. Reading the thread shows that the prince (small p) made it to Derby and then got his arse well and truly kicked all the way back to scotland and then a good thrashing into the bargain to put him straight.

Then the Scots sing about it for the next coupla hundred years.... and make up ever increasingly wild and exaggerated reasons for what happened being the result of English tyranny.

Thought that American film about the other plonker was also load of dog pooh. (Wallace and Gromit or something wasn't it?)

Please dont cloud the issue with facts....none of the songs contained any...let emotion run riot...and let slip the Dogs of war!

Spot the (English) Dog (looking for trouble)
