Good photos with some seriously overly flowery text.

Weird piece as far as I'm concerned. Nice photos though.

Oh FFS lighten up.

I had nothing to do with the article, but applaud them for trying to evoke the feeling of an away trip. Especially as they chose to follow Hibs supporters, of course!

Don't be so gloomy. Season's greetings!

Far from gloomy. In fact me and my friends have spent a good part of the afternoon having a great laugh at this beautiful and eloquent prose.

No picture of me on the bus :grr: The pie stall queue was massive but worth the wait.

this is a piece that was done for Nutmeg magazine (i believe)....which in my view is a fantastic new scottish football mag.....in this recent edition, there is also a great piece on Sauzee

Another hackneyed use of a two word sentence approaches. You laugh. Maybe this time the author won't insist on attempting to write in the second person. No chance. Surely no serious news organisation would publish something so bad? Guardian.

I was on the bus with Alan and even as a St. Johnstone fan, he was very complimentary about the Hibees, the FIH bus AND certain cup win/parade :thumbsup:
