Bedtime....
Wha' is my shepherd weel I ken
The Lord himsel' is he:
He leads me whaur the girse is green
An' burnies quiet that be.
Aft times I fain astray wad gang
An wann'r far awa':
He fin's me oot, he pits me richt
An' brings me hame an' a'.
Tho I pass through the gruesome cleuch
Fin' I ken He is near:
His muckle crook will me defen'
Sae I ha'e nocht to fear.
Ilk comfort whilk a sheep could need
His thoghtfu' care provides:
Tho' wolves an' dogs may prowl aboot
In safety me He hides.
His guidness an' his mercy baith
Nae doot will bide wi' He -
While fallded on the fields o' time
Or o' eternity.
Confusion is a natural state of beingComment

Must be something about the English?
Well my family comes from a mixed stock of Irish, Prussian, Austrian, Norwegian and the majority of them settled in North Wales so despite being born in England I'm not exactly prime English stockComment

Ignoring the little englishmen like cyberbuffon
I'm biased obviously but I love living and working here. What I will say is the contract market is pretty small (duh) and centres around in finance anyway a handful of companies.
Edinburgh has always been good to me with regard to work, but Glasgow also has a few opportunities. Some smaller stuff available in Fife and Stirling with Dundee a growing but still tiny market. Obviously oil in Aberdeen.
The east coast is my preferred side to live on but the west has plenty going for it (but not the weather).Comment

and you're a prime example of why."I hope Celtic realise that, if their team is good enough, they will win. If they're not good enough, they'll not win - and they can't look at anybody else, whether it is referees or any other influence." - Walter Smith
