Incoherent ramblings of an auld coffin dodger. Sometimes, politics, sport, TV and things that annoy me. Health warning: As time passes most things annoy me!!

As a Yes voter in 2014, below is a reason why the independence movement of 2026 depresses me. Laughing emoji and Saltire displayed at the loss of 260 jobs in England. Not a thought of the anxiety to family and personal circumstances of ordinary working folk. Not in my name.
And it begins 😆🏴
Cosmetics factory in England to close after 150 years and move to Scotland thenational.scot/news/257703…
A good article in Holyrood Magazine about @CStevensonSNP easy to forgot on here that to err is human.
Joanne probably in the running
#CelebrityTraitors for being the stupidest #faithful constantly wrong.
Monthly #energyprice for gas and electric £126. Deal coming to an end. Cheapest I can find going forward is £172. Harsh winter ahead.
This is just silly politics. Of course an independent Scotland would not be affected by global events and be able to sell diesel at 10p a litre.
Diesel fuel in Scotland is over £2 a litre for the first time ever - double what it was ten years ago.
Westminster is responsible for the energy market.

My dog needed an operation on left rear leg. Cruciate ligament problems. Cost £4k. Insurance paid. Right leg went. Insurance won't pay out. Bilateral condition. Only pay the once. Read the small print #petinsurance
Letby's lawyer does not come across well on
#newsnight but the conviction could be unsafe.
£72m donations to #ReformUK from Crypto industry. Looks to me like they have just bought a political party.
After the first three players on
#thechase I never thought Tom would be the hero. Well played lad. Great result.
Switching over to #pointless first two contestants on
#thechase go for low amount. Boring 🌞 ☀️
#Celtic lose after being 4 up 😆 🤣 To be fair, they were up against it from the start. Fans fenced in, could not invade park. More importantly no Scottish officials to ensure progression to league stage. A sair fate.
Usually find #newsnight a worthwhile watch. Not tonight. The fascination with Harry and Meghan dominating the news cycle defeats me.
Harry & Meghan make front pages, lead story on news and trending on X. Why? They are flitting. Am I alone in thinking why is this news?
