Thread Name: I'm going to Scotland!
Subject: RE: I'M GOING TO SCOTLAND!!
Shonagh---whit a jammy wee lassie! Broucht up in Plockton ---calendar-photie country---and now in Huntly? Cue for a song--"As I gaed in by Huntly Toon, ae mornin' for tae fee, I fell in wi' Bogie o' Cairnie, and wi' him did agree-----". Right bang in the middle of the bothy ballad country! Go to Scotland, Rebecca; the hearts are a lot warmer than the weather.Dinnae try to convert anybody, mind---just show agood example. If you arrive in a pub where songs are the "go"---take my word for it--there's no more popular song than "The Old Rugged Cross"!! Er---good luck with the weather, and use the Youth Hostels or a friend's house when you can---your costs will be affected quite dramatically... Boab
