The real joke is the title, scotman.

Now that is seriously bad - and it isn't Ecclefechan, more like Eckfeckhem.

My sister had a friend who lived there.....quite cute she was, even for being a farmer's girl. She had the title Eff FeckF Fiona, longe before William Hague's wife acquired that name of hers.

Mexicans are the ones that come across the border to do all the menial or sweaty jobs like gardening or construction.....slab as under a house...equiv of the folk from Krakow, Riga, Tallin etc over here that certain ABers so adore.
