    I can confirm that he is not savant.

        Two fools used a word from their childhoods that they thought sounded cool, but they are too thick to know what it means.
        I'm not even an atheist so much as I am an antitheist; I not only maintain that all religions are versions of the same untruth, but I hold that the influence of churches, and the effect of religious belief, is positively harmful. [Christopher Hitchens]

          although a quick search for that particular word would lead you to the offenders (Sas twice and PC once).

              Back on the topic of houses with no neighbours, a couple of months ago I was slightly tempted by Harehope Cottage, which is in the middle of a large forest miles from any other residential property (although there is a nearby farm), but only about 20 miles from Edinburgh. It was on the market for £330K, but it looks like it has now been sold or withdrawn from sale.

              But then I remembered the clouds of midges that follow you around in Scottish forests, and the bitterly cold winters.

              Also, I don't much care for the prospect of losing my English passport after september

                Give it two years and you can barter a crate of Buckie for it.

                  only if its still valid to get into England and escape the Wasteland of the PRS, otherwise he will be lucky to get a deep fried Mars bar for it.
                  Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.

                    Desperate times indeed.

                      Must admit I didnt realise it was associated with Downs syndrome. Where I come from it just refers to someone really thick...
