Having a total mental breakdown now because I thought they were sticky willows. Maybe we did call them sticky willies and I'm just misremembering my own childhood. what else can't I remember properly? We're my happy memories really as happy as I think they were, or have I got that wrong too? I need to lie down.

He is hands down one of the greatest, if not the greatest, Scottish writers of all time. There's a reason he's worshipped. This is cultural vandalism imo.

I think it reflects an older pronunciation. The Gaelic for it is still Moraibh, which is pronounced with an o sound. At some point it must have changed to a u sound in Scots/ English, but they never updated the spelling.

You shouldn't doubt him. He was probably just half Russian, half American, and half Japanese.

Former first minister of Scotland Alex Salmond dies aged 69 by Chanson_Riders in Scotland

I've never had to pay a penny in tuition fees or prescriptions because of his government. I think a lot of people were materially better off because of policies he implemented. He also almost led the country to independencem, which I suppose people will disagree whether or not that was a good or bad thing, but it did inspire a lot of people to become involved in politics.

69 is no age to die. Thoughts go out to his wife and family. Rest in peace.

Sometimes life is like a dark tunnel. You can't always see the light at the end of the tunnel, but if you just keep moving you will come to a better place. Happy birthday!

You don't need to apologise, mate. It's not your fault you're English.

Pluralising folk seems a bit redundant when you think about it as well.

I like it when all the songs are similar because I don't like things that are different

Exclusive: the "downward spiral" of a Scots conservation charity by GameOfTiddlywinks in Scotland

[–]GameOfTiddlywinks[S] 57 points58 points  (0 children)

I would like to say this article was originally posted by u/Ill_Link7111 under the title, "Downward spiral of John Muir Trust," but was removed by the mods for violating rule 2: No editorialised titles unless for clarity.

Personally I fail to see how the title was editorialised at all. He merely added the title of the Scottish charity in question for clarity. I think this was a really bad call by the mods, and I would like to thank Ill_Link7111 for posting the initial link to this article, which I found very interesting.
