Whose turn is it to riot this year?

Ours, you can always count on Handsworth.

Had a gig at the Daily Ranger years ago, had great pleasure in telling Jim Traynor how much of an arse he was on the first day.

Gaun' yersel'

Sometimes get the Sunday Mason

"Who's the mason in the black"

I'm an Caley Thistle fan and we got relegated so I'm keeping my fingers crossed that Falkirk go into liquidation over the summer so we get to come back up!

Don't think either of them are around now, in a small place in the Scotish Enterprise Park ironically.

Aye, Giffnock, half of Scotland's Jews in about 2 square miles. Little Israel. I'm a left footer though.

Which one, Scottish Power or British Energy? (are they both still there?)

Actually, I just thought: if you're in Giffnock which synagogue do you go to?

yeah its brilliant in the shade. Not so good in my office with SIX servers and a couple of switching humming and generating supreme heat. I haven't got much work done today. Tomorrow I'm shifting everything downstairs where it is much cooler. 'course by then the weather will cool down and return to normality (rain rain and more rain).

I'm in an 'eco office' in EK which I think really means 'we were too skint to buy air con'

That's exactly what it means and it's a crap attempt at an excuse. Modern eco offices maintain a comfortable temperature all year round using a combination of storing heat underground (pumping warm air into the ground in summer, re-using it in winter) in an aquifer, insulated ceilings, heat resistant windows and heat pumps; the Swiss Life office in Amstelveen is a good example. Unfortunately the technical explanation is in Dutch, but maybe you can find more information using the miracle of google.
