very sensible being in westminster when greeting the welsh.
funny lot the welsh.

[wolf63]

Why are the Welsh managing to avoid the visitation? Not fair!

the Popemobile has difficulty ploughing through rain-sodden sheep pasture

[wolf63]

Are us Scots not supposed to be mainly Protestants?

[Ankou]

that would probably explain why he is visiting you, to convert you.
the welsh are beyond that of course.

I went to St Mary's University.

I don't think I want to be in London when the he arrives particularly, I don't think his presence is worth the closing of services/roads or general disruption it'll bring. Although hopefully I'm wrong and I won't even notice he's here.

[Ankou]

but when he parts the water of the thames to walk across to lambeth, surely that'd be worth a watch ?

[China Doll]

Pah.... Rememebr the glass box hanging above the thames fella?! I take a dim view of publicity stunts...

'near miss over Heathrow as executive jet narrlowly avoids collision with pope ascending to heaven'.

[Ankou]

thats cockney rhyming slang for these types of people.... isnit.

[Ankou]

heaven ? aint that under the charing cross arch ?
might've know the pope would be 'that' sort.

Wasn't Mary Queen of Scots, Catholic?

Reading some posts on here, as convinced me that we have lost most of the respect for such dignities, we once held.

[Ankou]

aog, what has one 500 year od catholic got to do with the current population ?!

most scots are protestant, less than 20% of the populaiton are catholics.

interested to know more about these 'dignities' you have erected a shrine to.

>we have lost most of the respect for such dignities, we once held.

Have you seen some of the things the Catholic Church (or people working for them) have been up to in the last few years.

They should be ashamed of themselves.

They have paid out MILLIONS of pounds and dollars in compensation to people abused by people in the Catholic church when they were young.

As far as I am concerned the Catholic church is probably as evil as the Mafia.

Read about some of the thing it has done, the people it has killed, the pain it has caused.

[VHG]

Rad this and then see if you still have respect for the pope

I think the Scots should pay for the security.

aog, yes, the Suarts were Catholic, which is basically why they were biffed out, as the nation was not. Union with Protestant England didn't help matters. Charles II was the only Stuart with any sense.
