Pedant Alert!

Actually when Churchill was prime minister a law (or an act of parliament) was passed to save the monarch from being called King David the x of England and y of Scotland - it was decreed that they should just take the highest number of the two!

Therefore, should we get another James (for example) then he will be known as James the 8th and not James the 3rd of England and 8th of Scotland.

Or alternatively she gauged the wider political opinion in a modern society and thought **** it leave them where they are, at least we know where to find them when we finally decide to do something about it. Cheaper than putting a fence up.

A magnificent alternatively coloured moon could be seen in the night sky

[Topographic Hibby]

The Rangers conspired with the mainstream Scottish media to tell a pack of lies about the their supporters conduct and non-existent attacks on all of their players and staff in a vain attempt to have Hibs thrown out of the Europa League draw so that they could plug the hole in their finances that now exists, so large that they can't afford to pay The Magic Hat his promised promotion bonus, causing said Hat-Bloke to disappear off the edge of the planet and leave the entire matter in the hands of his lawyers, whilst The Rangers continue to howl at the moon courtesy of a fat bloke from Airdrie, so much so that the SFA compliance unit are pouring over his proclamations, which is ironic as the SFA are squirming like a worm on a hook over the matter of Rangers right to play in Europe years ago, despite a tax bill being unpaid.
