Hey! No lollygagging!

Guess road rage would make him a little cross?

YouTube will most likely remain king. Simply don’t get the videos on Vimeo or Dailymotion.

Used to be all over Google products but got my soul back and sold it to Apple instead. All the big corps are the same in the end, I think.

I had Windows Phone, BlackBerry 10, CyanogenOS, Jolla Sailfish and was waiting on Firefox os and Ubuntu to be available in my country they never were. We are stuck with stripped back versions of Android and iOS.

Hey, let’s not forget that time he almost put fuel in a car!

Shire always looks so perfect. I swear it and Whiterun in Skyrim are my happy places.

Yeah that was a swift correction for sure haha!

In Scotland it was always called ‘guising’ (as in disguising) and we used to ‘dook for apples’ (bob for apples) and carve neeps (turnips) instead of pumpkins. I also remember a game of a treacle treat dangled on string that you had to eat with no hands but that was an old one with my grandparents.

Also it used to have to be something scary; wolves, witches, vampires, monsters. Now it’s essentially fancy dress.

I read Steiners book, a good read if anyone has access to it and very insightful. I really hope to see him at either Alpine or Sauber as he is such a unique character but can’t help feel that Haas didn’t want to spend the money to really move the team forward.

Maybe he is stripping back to sell to Andretti.

What counts as a British accent? Not being awkward just curious as I see it mentioned usually by American folks a lot. Does it mean any accent from the UK?

I’m Scottish as is my whole family and our nieces (5 of them) all say bucks, trash can, soccer ball. I’m quick to point out their errors but I have to give them a wee bit leeway but I draw the line at trick or treating.

Also user friendliness. I tried Linux once at the behest of a programmer mate and just couldn’t get into it. I’m fairly confident with tech but going in cold scared me off whereas windows (and to a lesser extent back then, Mac OS) was safer.

Office 365 are the champs for the working world. Google are growing and Apple are…there but Office364 reigns supreme, in the UK at least.

Work for a broadcaster in the UK in one of the back office support roles. We can all work from home for 2 or 3 days every week and the other 2 or 3 in the office.

It was initially ‘suggested’ post-Covid but from January it will be mandatory to do it as people were not sticking to the suggested days.

I would like to dump on America for this but as Scotland is in the UK we have some unholy abomination of in between when it comes to our measurements.

Only Apple thini I got was a MagSafe wallet but I had already got a M3 iMac and new iPad Mini this year so can’t complain!

I believe we have two ferries going from east Scotland to Amsterdam and Bruges (or somewhere nearby) starting shortly. We also have Fred Olsen cruises from Scottish ports now too.

Not defending brexit before I get pitchforked but we aren’t exactly cut off…

Maybe with your name you should avoid the water entirely? Didn’t end so well last time…

Here’s a few:

• Our national animal is a Unicorn
• We are oddly proud of our tap water being drinkable
• We have nearly 800 islands
• The saltire (our flag) is the oldest in the world allegedly, from 8th century
• Despite being part of the bigger country of United Kingdom, Scotland has its own entirely separate legal and education systems.

Scotland

Genuine question here from a place of interest, what do you count as a British Accent? Is there like an actor or someone with an example?

I’m Scottish and for such a wee country (meaning both Scotland and also the UK) we have such a wide variety of accents I am always interested when someone says ‘British Accent’ as the difference between south Wales to Newcastle to Essex to Aberdeen are chalk and cheese to me.

This unlocked some real memories of watching the show with grandparents back in the day!

Did it make it over to the states?

A loo with a view.
