Not being able to see my family/friends.

I presume tickets will be available on the door?

Coming from the person who was lecturing me on the SSP?

I have problems with people faux-quoting to make a point though. I can't help being a wanker with a big mouth. And since when were my personal opinions the mantra of the left?

Which doesn't say much really. Good for him? Well i'd rather talk to a 'scene lot' than someone like your fine self. And next time I see you i'll judge you on your friends as well. Sheridan would be proud of this story. Elephant never forgets? I couldn't really give a fuck who you want to be 'scene' with or not. 'scene with' get it, eh? eh? Now THATS a joke.

With me 'scene people' eh? Oh please. Next time you apparently 'overhear' scandal make sure you identify yourself so I can bid you a friendly good day.

And its not exactly Kosher to be joking about being homophobic is it? But i'm sure he'd find it hilarious to be a Nazi eh? As long as he's just 'joking'.

Oh i'm quaking in my wee space boots.

Oh right Yeah i'm sure you did o_O

You think i'd want to?

a) I doubt it was a joke knowing you. b) It was about as funny as getting kicked in the balls.

Well thats nice

I think I understood the logic.

If that is the case, then why does Scotland have more MPs per constituents than England? Similarly, we have the advantage of having a parliament which lets us have a hell of a lot of freedoms, much more then say the likes of people in the North of England. We also have to remember the amount of funding that Scotland has got in the past from Westminster...its not that bad a deal.

:laughing: Thanks for all the kind words guys!

The independance question is a difficult one, especially for socialists I think. Both the SSP and Solidarity call openly for the formation of an independant socialist Scotland, yet there are large numbers within such organisations that are against this. We have to realise, like any ethnic group or state, that Scotland has a right to self determination, just like Palestine, Chechnya, Quebec etc. However, understanding their right to this doesn't necessarily mean that it is a wise move to put into practice. By making an independant Scottish state we alienate the workers down south who we have a lot in common with, through trade union links, strieks, similar goals etc. Time and precious money for an independant capitalist Scotland would be spent on a separate Scottish army, renegotiation into the EU and NATO, and suchlike. An indepenndant socialist Scotland would either be a short-term success but end up a collosal failure (socialism in one country is entirely a manufacture of Stalininsm), or a failure from the start which cries out for capitalist neo-imperialist countries to invade it and reclaim it. Don't get me wrong, I would'nt shed a tear for the breakup of the British State, but some thing need to be taken into consideration! All that and Braveheart re-runs. Don't laugh, there would be.

I feel sorry for everyone having to sit through the Kooks! Larrikin Love pulling out must have been a kick in the balls

Aye it was very good. Fields impressed a lot and GoodBooks were really tight live. Kid Harpoon was quite power acoustic/antifolksy so that went down well with me. Well worth the ticket money. And the afterparty was really good, even if someone had to be sent home in an ambulance! Wouldn't want to be Marc cleaning his house right now

Yeah, cause its the man's fault, isn't it?

ACE gig and an ACE party

Formally seconded. Its like the time they tried to rename Coco Pops 'Choco Crispies'.

I think the band will be contributing to the 'drink fund'.

Congratulations to Kai on his imminent freedom Remember kids, be like Zammo...just say no!

I'd jump at the chance of a few libs badges if you've got any spare
