Not the only thing the Scots learned from them either. Pillaging your home instead of paying for goods, yelling barely understandable warcries to each other and using urine to bleach their knickers.boudicca wrote: It is said that the ancient ritual of Måkharrtlndir Stæbing (commonly known today as MacHeartlander Stabbings) dates back to Norse swordsmanship....
Possibly.

This has been my confessional for a few years now. And I don't have to remember how the Hail Mary goes.boudicca wrote:...if you're REALLY, REALLY embarrassed about something then you won't be wanting to tell all yer HL mates, n'est ce pas?
I've fallen in love with the place. It was so refreshing to be in a genuine service-oriented environment where OK, Sure and No Problem are more prevalent than Please, Thankyou and Sorry. And you get to ask for exactly what you want and how you want it, as opposed to putting up with what you're given. Fair enough, so it may be cos they're after a tip, but I only found out in Philadelphia that you're supposed to tip a buck a drink and I still got served promptly and gratiously everywhere before that. We're so f**king suspicious of anyone being friendly over here that we assume they must have an ulterior motive. And the place is so outstandingly huge and easy to get around with stunning scenery, breathtaking natural parks and a real sense of where they've come from cos it's so well documneted and relatively fresh in their memory. They still have that pioneer spirit whereas we Brits can't even remember how the f**k we got here and are generally too embarassed about our colonnial past to be able to be proud of our contribution. And getting drunk as a lord isn't an olympic sport. I've been reminded that being sober is a very attractive thing in a woman.eastmidswhizzkid wrote:of all the places i have yet to see i am more than happy to leave the u.s. until last.
