Title: Scottish currency.....fixed it!
Post by: Marks DTM Calib on 17 February 2014, 08:20:03
Was doing some Omega work over the weekend and had a flash of inspiration.

If Scotland becomes independent, they will need a new currency if the news and politicians are to be beleaved.

So I thought, why not the Grote, in this case the Scottish Grote or Scrote for short.

BBC ticker, Scottish Greens "all currency options should be considered"

So looking at the history of the Grote, would that be a thick grote or a great grote (Scrote)..?

Clearly, given the man involved, a thick grote.  ;D

A referendum I think.

Thick Scrote clearly fits, but he may well prefer "Great Scrote". ...greatest Scrote of all. ;D

It's really made me laugh last week when Osborne said that an independent Scotland couldn't share sterling and Nicola Sturgeon said that if the UK wasn't prepared to enter a currency union there would be a 'massive backlash!' ::)  Ooooooo!!  :o  ;D

The question that keeps coming to me about all this is why are the scot's voting on independence and all the time talking about joining another union(EU) or keeping monetary union with the pound  ??? ??? ???

I think that the English should get a vote on whether we think the Jocks should be allowed to keep the Pound  ::) ::) ::) ::)

Firstly, time the wall went back up and secondly, if they get independence does that mean that any Scott in England is an illegal immigrant? and therefore should be repatriated with their own Country, as they wont be part of the EU.......... :D :D :D
