Indeed, it was enthralling. :y


But being of a certain age, whenever I hear the name 'Scott', I always think of Jeremy Thorpe:

"Scott of the ars* antics!"........
......."Keep your mouth shut: or we`ll kill your dog" ::)

Yes, I remember a joke from the same era, along the lines of "How many Liberals can you get on one stool?" "Turn it upside down and it'll take four"

....or something like that.  ;) ;D ;D ;D
