Where's our Saltire?

Sorry to hear that, Thistledoo. Hope you feel better soon.

Clap a silly hat on the whingeing Scots and they should be happy!

Spent St. Andrew's day lying in bed with a horrid virus. So disappointed as we were planning to have a family lunch followed by a walk along the glorious Caladonian Canal. Weather was bright and sunny, I really spoilt our little St Andrews celebration. Hope my fellow scots had a nice day.

How come the best GN can do for St Andrew's Day is an array of cartoon caricatures? I don't recall cartoons of English football louts or Welsh sheep-chasers, or any of Irishmen clutching a pint of Guinness in each hand. Saltires and thistles are much easier to design, too. You can do better than this, tech.

"Hey, guys, why are we here??

I realised that Lona

Yes Ana. Not much point now

Too late anyway!

The emoticon not your request Agus.

Well, I'm not a Scot but I'm not impressed with that!

From a whinging Scot, thought I would get that in before I am accused of being one, please bin those tacky Jimmy emoticons GNHQ.

Many thanks.

I'd have preferred a thistle.

what is this? Is it supposed to be a 'Jimmy' wig?

Oh God! I thought you meant some poster who hadn't posted for ages! I thought I didn't recognise the name.

Sláinte

Yes, cheers or slainte (with an accent)

Wasn't this just an innocuous sort of thread to start with

Happy St Andrews Day to one and all. .

No nationalism intended in any of my posts,just a genuine wish to celebrate St Andrews Day as the English,Welsh and Irish celebrate their respective Saints days,and wishing my fellow Scots Gransnetters Happy St Andrews Day seemed appropriate.

Well said, musketeers. One for and all for one. United we stand!

Enough with all this nationalistic nonsense!

Haven't England and Wales been united for about a 1000 years.

Nationalism causes wars.

Talk about divide and rule - pitting one part of the country against another.

Reminder papaoscar. Start your own thread.

I completely understand why you started this thread anno and agree with your reasons. I always join in with best wishes for St George/St David/St Patrick day threads and was disappointed we didn't have one for Scotland.
Anyhoo, enjoy your evening

Will do * Scooter58 *, (mine was a wonderful old Lambretta), just don't forget there are other members in our little club. Tolerance and respect. Have a nice day!

* Agus*, with respect, its your Saltire not mine. Alex Salmond was in my backyard ridiculing my national flag in public. Please take him away and teach him some good manners. No politics involved.

However - correction, papaoscar. The Union flag doesn't represent all constituent parts of the UK, as no doubt our Welsh members would confirm.

St Andrew's Day greetings to all.

G23 I'll bet that was a fabulous concert. I first saw Phil Cunningham & Aly Bain almost forty years ago in Glasgow, they were terrific then and still are.
