Lorraine Kelly……..I can’t stand the way everything she comes across is absolutely wonderful and everyone she interviews is absolutely wonderful
She used to be kinda sexy in a “guess what’s underneath all this straightlaced stuff” kinda way, but now she’s just straightlaced.

I’ve never heard of ‘grammer’ known as ‘grandma’! :oops: :lol:
It’s a reference to variations on the old joke:
Boy walks into a shop “Gimme summa that quick”
Shopkeeper: “Young man! Where’s your grammar?”
Boy: “She’s outside waiting, that’s why you have to be quick!”
The one rule to remember
From below or above me
Is no matter who’s speaking
All grandmas are lovely

Right, wordy, vengeance for Capt Scott lol
This is partly thwarted by your recognition that William Wallace didn’t get to Derby (I think twas York, though that is memory – I have a long memory lol).
The Jacobites got there because they wanted the Young Pretendeer on the British throne. They were aiming for London, not Scottish independence. In fact, the clan mentality of the Scots Jacobites had no conception of Scottish nationhood, which is why Scotland was so often wracked with civil war (the Camplells are cumming hah ha ha ha).
This was doomed, as Flora MacDonald was awaitin’, but in the part of Cumbria in which I grew up, the legnend is that there is a litter of Bonnie Prince Charlie’s descendants. He may have been a cad, but the lasses went for him.
It was probably because he was a cad. I wikipedia’d Flora to remind myself (so much forgotten . . . . ) For a fleeting moment I thought I recognised her picture – was I Flora MacDonald’s fancy?

Nope, goes back further . . . . . .
OK Derby, nothing to do with Wallace, but the Jacobites did get there in 1745 . . . . Still not sure why they went so far from home.

You can’t beat a bit of Hibernian magic.
I do still wonder what the Hell William Wallace was doing in Bloody Derby . . . .
