How could we have overlooked Scotland's poet laureate!

 

Talking about Scottish poets how could I have overlooked Robert (Rabbie) Burns, The Bard! The national poet of Scotland.

 

 

Here's one of his less well known works.

 

 

Johnie Lad, Cock Up Your Beaver (1791)

 

When first my brave Johnie lad came to this town,

He had a blue bonnet that wanted the crown;

But now he has gotten a hat and a feather,

Hey, brave Johnie lad, cock up your beaver!

 

Cock up your beaver, and cock it fu' sprush,

We'll over the border, and gie them a brush;

There's somebody there we'll teach better behaviour,

Hey, brave Johnie lad, cock up your beaver!

Thanks very much Cent. No question that Scotland, thanks to this thread, is way up on my tourism list now. Top priority for not only the literary and cultural contributions to civilization but also the raw physical beauty of the Scottish landscape.

 

When it comes to poontang I guess I will insert my tourist baht elsewhere. Sadly, Sweden is now out also after the recent Wikileaks debacle with the gender equity officer and the payback for consensual sex.

Wow CS, a bit of effort went into that post. :up:

 

Fortunately none of it is true. :liar:

 

Well, not all of it! whistling_smile.gif

 

 

 

 

 

Munchie,

 

It needed to be done. I could not in good conscience let Acockasian travel to the dangerous and strange land of the Scots without a tutorial on what to watch out for. It needed doing, and I's a dones it. A public service message for those not clued in to the Scottish culture.

 

CS

 

p.s. Many thanks to Munchie for posing for the Scotsman porno stud pic. They are proud of him back in the old sod. Justifiably so. :xmsgrin::snowgrin::stirthepo:cover::grinyes:
