Independent Scotland?

I take your point about the UK and Great Britain, Sheal, I was only being generalistic and paying homage to the UK title as it seems to be the one most used by people and the media. Can you put me down now and let me have the soap box back that you borrowed off me///:D:D I actually prefer the Great Britain title but I just didn't realise that anyone else did:thumb:

I agree with you, Shiney I'm proud of being British, I'm proud of being English, but not to the point of fanaticism. I dislike all this historical tribalism that some people seem to live in as they believe it gives them some sort of importance and status above other countries and cultures.

 

You're welcome, Sheal:D My phobia is Sharks, I had an "encounter" with a few off the coast of Kenya a long time ago. They are masters of the element they're in and if you're up close and personal on your own, as I was, you see how cold and unemotional they are, pure eating machines. I learnt how to walk on water that day

 

At double the price, Makka, cos we're foreigners.!!!:D


Shineyland sounds a lot like Rutland, tiny and wanting to be independent. If you can keep all the Councils confused. [doesn't take much]. and milling around you might be able to raise the Shineyland flag and take them all over. If you introduce laws against "bean counters" and "jobs worth" you'll reduce the councils by 99%. :yess:

I'm surprised you don't go to church, Shiney, you know that Jesus wants you for a sunbeam don't you??:D

King Oscar isn't demanding because he's satisfied that all is well in his Kingdom and that he owns you

 

:D :D :D :D :D :D

Not quite like Rutland. They, apparently, do more rutting there

One of our neighbours has a flagpole in his front garden and occasionally flies the flag of St Andrews or the Union Flag but most of the time he is flying the Skull and Crossbones :yess:. He patrols the western border of Shineyland

All the other churchgoers got fed up with wearing sunglasses

 

Well, when the Government took Rutland off the map for a while, and tried to integrate it into Peterborough, there were a lot of Politicians in great danger of learning the meaning of Rut.

The Great Army of Rutlanders was being mobilised to move onto London whilst running a campaign to get Rutland officially back when the English government decided to surrender to make Rutland appear on the map again.:yess: I've always liked the American Southern State flag of the coiled Rattler with the warning "Don't step on me"

Well, they say, Shiney, that the Sun shines on the Godly, but I have noticed that it shines on the Ungodly too.

 

Rock On, Rutland!!!
