an article in the mail on sunday suggests scotland may get there own national anthem, it quite a nice catchy song, " let scotland flourish " do you like it ? :)

[sandyRoe]

What's wrong with 'Flower of Scotland'?

[Bobbisox]

have you a link Anne?

[joggerjayne]

Isn't it a bit jingoistic to want your own anthem?

** wanders off to make more coffee, singing "Sussex By The Sea **

Sandy

How about the tune and the words.

[joggerjayne]

... and the facts that it is irrevocably associated with sporting calamity !

[redman41]

I thought it was ' Tickle me Thistles ' ! :-))

[sandyRoe]

Apart from the tune and the words. It seems to be popular and well supported at rugby games.

[joggerjayne]

"Hoots Mon, There's A Moose Loose Aboot This Hoose" ...

... has more the sort of humorous tone suited to the idea of Scotland "going it alone".

[anneasquith]

sorry bobbi i cant do do links, maybe a kind soul will find it :)

[joggerjayne]

"well supported at rugby games"

Hence ... associated with sporting calamity !

[anneasquith]

originally sung by the corries i believe, jj chill :)

[Gromit]

The Corries wrote Scotland WIL Flourish.

Let Scotland Flourish appears to be a compilation album.

[Gromit]

Sounds like a paedo song?

If Scotland do become independant, what'll happen to the Union Flag? It'll look very naff without the blue of Scotland!
