Subject: RE: Help: Scottish humor sought
When I was at St Andrews University in 1959, I received an anonymous valentine with the inscription
My love is like a mutton-chop,
Sometimes cold and sometimes hot.
On the envelope was written
Postie, postie, dinna falter --
This may take me to the altar.
Alas, not even an advertisement persuaded the lady to reveal herself.
