and his Tombola of Transfers
Not quite as entertaining as Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, but frankly about as historically accurate.Alan Nixon and his Tombola of Transfers
Alan Nixon and his Tombola of Transfers
Nixon and his volatile verbal volleysNixon strikes me more as a Toblerone of transfers type.
I wouldn't know!Nixon and his volatile verbal volleys
at times he’s an angry man.

I have worked on a couple of projects in Scotland, and I have found the “locals“ to be warm, welcoming, and absolutely f***ing bonkers, in equal measure.Can confirm we absolutely are.
He waited until after, so obviously Edinburgh - if it had been Glasgow you'd have done your rearchitecture from the pub!I have worked on a couple of projects in Scotland, and I have found the “locals“ to be warm, welcoming, and absolutely f***ing bonkers, in equal measure.
My favourite, after I’d done a rearchitecture for one of our business units‘ locations based in Edinburgh, went along the lines of „ah, it’s all good, now let’s feck off to the pub, aye?“
More countries should be like Scotland. Because they’re ace.
There might be something in this!He waited until after, so obviously Edinburgh - if it had been Glasgow you'd have done your rearchitecture from the pub!
Who's that ITK chap that recently got banned, was his name Widdow?
You really see a culture at the base of society though, like working on building projects as the only English engineers. Having to stay in cheap hotels and drink in the local houses in a place like Easterhouse and Its somewhat different at times to that of the corperate world. Not quite as friendly shall we say.There might be something in this!
Seriously though, I’ve traversed the world in the service of the large German conglomerate, and yet have I to find a people as friendly and welcoming as the Scots.
The Japanese run them close, but rarely have I been looked after as well as I was in Schottland.
And I didn’t get filled-in by Begbie, either.
Amended.Percy need going in top or second category?
That David Kent has been called out for using a stock photoRight, I’m back from five days away. Who needs adding to the list?
AllNigeriaSoccer and David Kent are auto added to the bottom, obviously.
Turkish? Iranians are also mega, mega hospitable.There might be something in this!

There seem to me, from my working experience 3 kinds of Scot:I have worked on a couple of projects in Scotland, and I have found the “locals“ to be warm, welcoming, and absolutely f***ing bonkers, in equal measure.

As an East Coaster I'd say you've obviously never been here. We are for the most part drunken godless heathens. I would say that it takes a lot to impress us.There seem to me, from my working experience 3 kinds of Scot:
1 Up the East Coast they are morose religious clones who do not know how to have a good time, nor let anyone else have a good timeeither;
2 Up the West Coast they are more relaxed and welcoming, particularly when you get to the Western Isles;
3 The Glaswegians: either serious drinking alcoholics or druggies, with severe bi-polar issues. They will either hug you and tell you you are their best friend, or stick nut on you, or knife you if they decide they don't lkike you, and if you are english, they will not like you.
Some of my best friends are Scots.
