Snaw!

[Lachlan09]

Bloody losers !

I remember my faithful Mini Traveller in the 1970's had front wheel drive and I used to be rolling along London Road (up fae the enemy at Easter Road) while most cars were dead and frozen,

Ditto with my old Beetle which I had for thirteen years, a few rocks in the boot and it left lesser breeds wallowing in snaw! Stuck it in a car auction at the hinner-end, it raised £70, greetin all the way to the bank!

The Land O' the Leal

I'm wearin' awa' Jean,
Like snaw-wreaths in thaw, Jean,
I'm wearin' awa'
To the land o' the leal.
There's nae sorrow there, Jean
There's neither cauld nor care, Jean,
The day's aye fair
In the land o' the leal.

To me ye hae bee true Jean,
Your task's ended noo, Jean
For near kythes my view
O' the land o' the leal.
Our bonnie bairn's there, Jean,
She was baith gude and fair, Jean,
And, oh! we grud'd her sair
To the land o' the leal.

But dry that tearfu' ee Jean,
Grieve na for her and me, Jean
Frae sin and sorrow free
I' the land o' the leal.
Now fare ye weel, may ain Jean!
This warld's cares are vain, Jean,
We'll meet and aye be fein
I' the land o' the leal.

Robert Burns
