Davie is the brother of Duncan, for whom I did a consultancy project in Inverness. I went out on his boat once....

What a small world! ;)

Don’t talk pish. U knows Davie well. Go on tell them about the altercation with u and Davie in the school bog. U claimed u was only tying your shoelace. That’s why Duncan took to the sea :D

Very nice boat Davie's got too. We had a lovely sail up the Cromarty Firth in the cold, drinking a wee dram out of his hip flask...

Ah, those were the days....

But did you hear about him & that Scottish MP? She was a real *shocker* - oops, I've let the (Scottish Wild)cat out of the bag now....)

You were sworn to secrecy on that one, it will be off with you head lassie. Oh and by the way not too sure about the 'she' bit, she had a 5 o’clock shadow :D

Fraid not, gotta do it like the rest of us if you want the respect, Johno, sori

Games involving Sydney Opera House , Brisi Koala Bears & Melbourne Storm-in-a-teacup dont count, they are a marketing exercise.

Qld & NSW went their own way a long time ago & best of luck to them. I watch both the rugby codes & think they are a credit to the nation, producing world class teams.

The guys with the round ball will never produce anything world class cos they hardly ever play together, but as individuals they excel.

















sweet, matey, nfw ;)

Shit!:eek:

And you think you can keep a secret, a secret......!!!
I was only tying my shoelace! Honest!!!

OK, I do know Davie, but that was all a big misunderstanding!

I still feel sorry for Davie, losing his brother to the sea, and the drink like that!

But does nobody feel sorry for me!!
I was the innocent victim of all this, and ended up having to emigrate to Australia to get away from it all....:(

Duncan and Davie still don't reply to my e-mails!!!

I'm not happy...:( :(

He's not deed!
He just spends half of his life making shitloads of money as a fisherman, and the rest drinking himself into a coma!

It's the coastal Highland way...

If you've ever been in a pub in Broadford, Isle Of Skye, you'll know what I mean!:D :beer: :beer: :beer:
