The Scotch people don't have anything left worth nicking so they don't seem to mind taking them off our hands. The most valuable thing they ever had was some old stone that used to sit under Her Majesty's throne and nobody else wants that. We only kept hold off it for so long to wind them up. Worked a treat too for about 700 years. LMFAO.
The "an lia fail" or stone of destiny as you english call it is a very interesting story if you actually look into its history.
If you read the ancient description of it , it was supposed to be a black stone carved in ancient celtic hieroglyphics ( ogham?) that the celtic kings of scotland were crowned upon. From memory it was supposed to have been brought by the wandering celts from scythia or somewhere in the middle east , across north africa up through spain to these islands. So the stone should not be native stone to these islands.
The stone edward the first took was a scottish red sandstone block. 
The story goes the guardian priest knew the english regiments were coming so hid the real an lia fail , and the english took a red sandstone block that was covering the local cesspit.
We know at least one more time many months later the english regiments came back to have another root around , and went away empty handed. So they must have had thir suspicions.
I still laugh today to think english and then later british monarchs have been getting crowned for the last 700 years on a fuckin lavvie lid.
lol. What happened to the original celtic stone? Was it lost to the winds of time or is it still hidden from us thieving bullies somewhere up there in the frozen north? |

I mind reading there were jewish groups wanting to do tests on the stone to see if the religous myth that apparently it was the pillar of jacob or something like that was possibly true , but they were refused in case they told everyone it was just a red sandstone scottish block used as a lavvie lid.
Whatever the truth monte , you have to laugh. Certainly the pictures i have seen are nothing like the description of the original. I suppose after 700 years they have to keep up the fantasy though.

Well you wouldn't tell me if you knew where it was anyway, would you? I'm starting to get a little suspicious you might actually have it yourself since you know so much about it. Give me your address and I'll send the constabulary around to check your outside privie. |

Charles I was the king of Great Britain and Ireland from 1625 to 1649. ,He was born into the house of Stuart. the second son of King James VI of Scotland, His frequent quarrels with Parliament ultimately provoked a civil war that led to his execution on January 30, 1649. By the way James the 1st was the King of England and the same guy James the 6th of Scotland. His mother was Mary Queen of Scots. She was born at Linlithgow Palace, West Lothian on 8 December 1542, Mary became Queen of Scots when she was six days old. Charles II was King of Scotland from 1649 until 1651, and King of England, Scotland and Ireland from the 1660 Restoration of the monarchy until his death in 1685. Charles II was the eldest surviving child of Charles I of England, Scotland and Ireland and Henrietta Maria of France. If you are interested in how the Kings and Queens and comic singers became the Kings and queens. You may find this film interesting in shagging relationship.. . www.imdb.com/title/tt2328900/ There are big gaps in my knowledge of Kings and Queens. Edward I is a big favourite but all the Tudor machinations are a bit vague in my mind. I believe Mary QoS was temporarily ensconced at nearby Framlingham castle (made famous more recently by Ed Sheeran's Castle on the Hill song). Unless I'm mixing up my Marys or thinking of Matilda who spent a little time there during her troubles. Luckily I have a 12'' rule from an English Heritage gift shop with ''Rulers of England'' on the B side with all the names and dates from Edward the Confessor to our dear lately departed monarch. I bought it for the pun but it has come in very handy. Are Bloody Mary and Queen Margherita of Denmark the only monarchs named after cocktails? |

Starmer just plays the same point scoring games as any experienced politician these days. Practised and polished beforehand in front of a bunch of image consultants armed with think tank reports and public consultation polls. Sunnak is exactly the same, more fake than Katie Price's tits. At least with Blackford I got the sense he actually believed the things he was saying whether I agree with him or not (not mostly). But like I say, I don't watch it very often these days and he could easily be just as phoney as the others for all I know. PMQ's can be fun if the speakers are witty. I seem to remember a few people who were good at the despatch box, William Hague was often entertaining, as was Geoffrey Cox, Cameron wasn't bad and Peter Bone had his moments from the back benches. Offhand I cant think of an entertaining Labour speaker, Dennis Skinner was always good value, not from the despatch box of course. One of Hague's crackers was when Blair was fumbling through his notes and Hague shouted, "It's under "f" for falsehoods.  |

Sunak is just a out and out liar. And is no different from the lying Bojoke. They now do not even attempt to hide it. PMQ is just a pantomime. |
