ultras67 Posted November 30, 2005 Report Share Posted November 30, 2005 Have a nice St Andrews Day! ( for those ignorant, this is the day of the Scottish national Saint - Andrew ) So buy something Scottish now!! A whisky, a bar of tablet, a bottle of Irn Bru, a haggis, a black pudding, a fish supper................ Just do it! Cheers!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Central Scrutinizer Posted November 30, 2005 Report Share Posted November 30, 2005 ultra, Already did my bit for the Scots this year. I let my daughter marry one! :: Although I would not wear one of their silly kilts (skirts) as part of the wedding. (Figured my sexy legs would be too distracting. ) Nice family the groom has, and a nice guy he is. At least we know our daughter will have plenty of money being married to a frugal Scot. Problem will be for her to be able to spend any of it! :: :: St. Andy? Cent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dean Posted November 30, 2005 Report Share Posted November 30, 2005 Forgive my ignorance but if Scotland is a protestant nation, why do they have a day to celebrate a Catholic saint (yes, I know that Scotland was a catholic nation before turning protestant).

dean Posted December 1, 2005 Report Share Posted December 1, 2005 I had read a couple of years ago about the Scots trying to make a day in the middle of either April or May the equivalant of St. Patrick's Day, with a parade in New York. For that first parade, I thought that Sean Connery showed up. Is this still going on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flashermac Posted December 1, 2005 Report Share Posted December 1, 2005 Scotland is a Protestant nation? Then I wonder who all those buggers are that cheer for the Celtics? p.s.

I'm a Protestant and a Celtic supporter. Not many of us though. P.S. They're not referred to as the Celtics. Celtic, Glasgow Celtic or the Bhoys is traditional. Hail, hail.
