"...the isle is full of noises,
Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

"Glasgow Roulette" = making chips when y'er pissed....
I was not! I deny that completely! [MRD]OK, I would say that, wouldn't I? [/MRD] But seriously I wasn't. I went into the sitting room with my food. If I had put on music or TV, the situation would have been very serious, as I wouldn't have heard the kitchen ceiling tiles falling to the floor. As it was, it was a new cooker, a new cooker hood, and two rooms requiring redecorated. (And a new chip pan, but Management banned them.)
Dare we ask what sort of gear you get into on December 8, Padraig?
And... never the 7th ... or the 9th... always the 8th....? Any special reason?

Our local independent classical cd shop has a Sunday where mince pies and mulled wine are offered. (McAlister, Mathieson Music in Edinburgh). The pies are baked from scratch by the proprietress, Anne McAlister. These are the best mince pies - EVER!

Baked from scratch,y'say? Sounds more like Mrs Miggins' Pie Shoppe

I came across some Ecclefechan Tarts today. I might try them as an alternative.
(I have stayed in Ecclefechan several times, at the Kirkconnell Hall Hotel, on business, the furthest North I have been, but I wasn't aware of any particular pastries connected to the village)
