Neds - they are found throughout the UK, with many different names and their call is different from place to place, but they essentially have the same habitat. Their appearance remains the same throughout the year, and have a diet of buckie, tennents lager, cider, and fast food. Can be observed between the hours of 10 and 2am.

Oh one more thing, this morning we had a flood of phone calls from all my rellies in Scotland, more specific, Caithness, Thurso, wishing my family blessings because we had another little person added last night at 7:21pm.( She weighed in at a hefty 7lbs, 5 oz!)
By the sounds of it, they were already celebrating for us with a wee dram !! Even considering the slurred speech, I thought to myself how easily I could understand them, people from almost as far north as you can get in Scotland, as opposed to some friends I have in Glasgow, whom I have to ask to repeat themselves after every second word or so!
What's up with that? It is usually the other way around in most places in the world, isn't it?

OOR communion reads, Late that night, Jesus sat doon tae eat wi the twelve apostles. Jesus took the breid an said a prayer o thanks. He broke the loaf an shared it roon the diciples, sayin, "This is ma body that will be gein up for ye aw." Then he took a cup o wine an haunded it roon, sayin,"An this is ma life--bluid, that will be shed by me tae forgie yer sins. But, mark this -- ah`ll drink nae mair wine until ah drink it fresh in the Kingdom o God." ------Clancheif- The dialect here in Fife is worse than Glasgow, with braw-for" cool" (u.s.)etc ----I know Thurso and have freinds there --when I was up there there were many NEDS there also. loging off soon

Just passing by, saw the light on and thought I'd drop in.
Ah hav a wee bit o Scottish blood in meh. Wilson o th' Gunn clan!

Hey, if you guys are still on for a get together, why don't you arrange for a trip to Iona off the island of Mull? You would have to make a day of it since it looks like at least three hours to and from Glasgow. I'd love to visit myself but I guess I'll just have to put up with living in Thessaloniki, Greece for the time being

God bless,

John.
