We're on the march with Stevos army, we're going to the *checks notes* Munich-tine. And we'll really shake them up, when we win the Euros cup, coz Scotland are the greatest football team. All TOGETHER NOW One of my earliest memories from primary school is sitting in the back of a bus with everyone singing that song. This was after the tournament as well - I guess it was just too big a banger to waste. |

Morning all Terry has bat aids. Bad business. Also immuno wazzered. Who wants the PS5 with a huge back log of games? Gams - tried playing some final fantasy xiv. You basically run around pressing tab and the number keys. Excel+. Top banana Today I plan to play total Waugh three kingdoms in bed all day. No Guardian review of Lloyd’s of the fallen, instea some prattle about a woke boats game. Never fear, dakky bas the scoop - it’s bad. 4 stars. Can I have your Rolodex please Terrence? Route 1 to the upper echelons of the Swaffham business community. |

The song starts with the sound of conversations in a crowded room, maybe a pub or social club. Then a tannoy announcement in a gruff Glaswegian accent "Will you all please get off your arse and stand for Flower of Scooootland".
Then a huge exaggerated out of tune guitar note followed by two more and then in parallel a loud bagpipe chimes in and gradually drowns out the guitar. Then everything fades back and then CGI young peak era Krankies in 1990 Scotland kits start belting out the words....

I've spent most of the morning setting up the PM's new work phone. Her IT lads provided her with beautiful screenshots. Which didn't include any possibility of errors happening, or perhaps you might have 2fa setup already and need to move it - not start from scratch. 4 stars.

I think Babyfark maybe got bullied by a Scottish kid at school or something.
I'm going to stay naively over optimistic about the whole thing and say I think we'll do well out there. Might even jump on a plane and visit some German pubs for a game or two.

Good morning,
Workchat: The head of my team is off on leave for three weeks. It's day one and things have already fallen apart. The person who's supposed to be deputising for her has spent all morning in a panic because she doesn't know what she's supposed to be doing, and the admin support person seems to need constant validation for everything she does. I might quit, just for a laugh

So, on balance, not many people seem to have the Air album.
I thought it was ubiquitous. Maybe not.
Boards of Canada - Music has the right to children?

I had the Boards album, not the shit French band one (amipal will surely back me here). Everyone should have had at least one Warp album in the 90's. |

Easy muchacho.
The Air one was ok. Though I think I prefer their first one.
The Boards of Canada one is excellent. The ones since maybe not so much. I don’t know why.

The air one I would have said is pretty ubiquitous. I also own the first couple of Boards of Canada albums.
I also have a mix of Warp recordings. Sabres, N.O.W. etc etc.
Just waiting for this kid to leave soon.
Her mum said her 22 year old sister might be coming for her.
Hmm. Accident much?
Mince and potatoes for dinner.
