I had a look at the member's photo's thread and thought that I might get one of mine there too.

I am much older than many of you and a little older than some of you but as I have been a father twice and a grandfather three times I felt that maybe my elderly influence might not be too unacceptable here.

I have just retired from competition in the Scottish Highland Games circuit so I am still fit, strong and fast so don't let the age fool you.

I will try to attach one of my piccies for you to gawp at as the one at the bottom does not say all that much about me.

Post you rpic in the members pic thread

watched a Highland games once.... what stuff you do in it?

Hi Corran...

Yeh..was gonna but my radio-mouse went flat !

Yo Df02

I used to wrestle whenI was younger but recently I restricted myself to chucking big pencils, iron balls and iron balls on sticks about....not to mention big weights, backwards, over a high-bar. I also used to do a trick with two of the highland dancers sitting on my biceps. I must admit that I miss it badly.

Hey, welcome!
Now you are addicted, now you can never leave! evil

tis is true , i was infected with kmc blood and cant seem to shake it loose .

Maybe I will want to stay but maybe I will be chased away !

the scottish spirit right there.... throwing stuff, women and i assume there was lots of alcohol there aswell lol

Yeh Df02....

I must admit that I enjoy a swalley !

BUT....unlike the popular misconception of the Scots I don't do it to the extreme, get argumentative, throw up all over the place and wake up in the morning with any ugly birds.......No I can do all of those things when I am quite sober !

i can only do half of it... only half scot, from Aberdeen but mum is half irish half english....

been rat-arsed quite a few times, and woken up with my fair share of hippo's....nothing on the Scottish level tho

Know how you feel Df02....

Although I was born in Scotland I am half Irish on my father's side and half English ( spit ) on my mother's side.

If ever you get "rat arsed" in Scotland you will find that you will do both to the limit...I mean, you will wake up with some really nice ones and you will waken up with five-pint-beautiful ones too. I have...often !

so you are a semi irish english born in scotland???????????? that would make you a ScIrEntich???????

i like your beard

Hey Pap welcome to KMC!

daddy

whoa, remind me not to piss you off

welcome to KMC

Gee tanks folks.....

Finti....

I would call it... "Scirish" as the English bit in me is always so heavily repressed that it does not appear if I can help it !

Oh...BTW...I think that I was a bit out of line putting this in as a new posting, but I clicked on the wrong button when I was in the members piccy thread. Then my radio-mouse went flat and I couldn't fix it until after there was some replies.

Anyway... no harm done I hope ?

first of all no harm done at all Paps

so a gaelic celt then

YEP....I guess !

(in a Yoda kind of way of putting it) proud of the herritage you should be, I am of mine. Norseman all the way

yea, yea, We ALL know Fin.

our next pillage should be in southern California, according to some Austrian who unbeliveably was able to be elected Gov, said that there is only girlie men in California(actually it was aimed at Democrates) so it would be nice to chip some nails there....beore we thumped some heads

Proud, I am !

I am also proud that some of my bloodline is Norse too !

The Vikings came to Scotland and mixed their genes with the Scottish wenches many times in the past and that has produced people like me who are NOT necessarily Celtic red-haired and pale-skinned but are often blonde and tanned. ( Blonde hair & beard grey now though ! ).

ehh tanned?????? does the sun actually shine long enough on the British Isles for you all to get a tan

I am one of those lucky Celts that tans in half an hour !

That's about all the sun we get up here !

ok, Slainte Mhath

What school did you go to? (Kidding, but that's a very common Scottish introductory request where I live)

Meh, we'll set our governator on you guys,

I dunno how the hell we elected him

I believe it was the State of Florida that "DIDN'T" elect him.....( after the lost votes were counted ).

Oh... you are NOT talking about Dubya are you ?

SOWWY !.....

No In My homse state of California, Our retarted voters elected Arnold Swarchenegger, Or however the hell you spell it, as govener.

Yeh...I was only kidding when I switched to the East Coast !

Mind you even although Arnie is great in action movies I find it strange that he was elected Guv Of California.

I mean...is he not actually further right than Ghengis Khan was being a Teutonic and all that. Is the Sunshine State as right-wing as Swartzenegger is or was that an abberation in the voting system there ?

Schwarzenegger

and I only know it from the joke some of my friends make:
"you said this would be easy..."
-"it's just like spelling Schwarzenegger"

No Cali for the most part is Democratic. Arnie was just a "Hey I saw his movies, wouldn't it be cool if he was govener?"

Arnold "Black ni**er"

the next president I take?

Nope, Not born in the us!

Thank God!
