Thread: Wanderlust Strikes Edwina

  1. #16
    Oh Miss Edwina, you are the finest Scottish Lass I've laid my eyes on...........

    And just in case you get a chance to go hunting in Edinburgh, here is part of Robbie Burns' Poem "To A Mouse"

    (Although I should warn you - they do talk a WEE BIT funny over there - I sould know - I was born just outside Edinburgh)

    Wee, sleekit, cow'rin, tim'rous beastie,
    O, what a panic's in thy breastie!
    Thou need na start awa sae hasty,
    Wi' bickering brattle!
    I wad be laith to rin an' chase thee,
    Wi' murd'ring pattle!

    I'm truly sorry man's dominion,
    Has broken nature's social union,
    An' justifies that ill opinion,
    Which makes thee startle
    At me, thy poor, earth-born companion,
    An' fellow-mortal!

    Thanks Kay for my great sig & avatar!!!

    Oh Edwina you are after my own heart for I have lots of Scottish blood in me. I used to be in a Pipe band for years and I still say "there nothing so handsome as a man is a skirt...."

    "If it's no Scottish, it's crap...."

    You look beautiful in your hat and I know you will enjoy that haggis, but make sure you have the appropriate beverage to go along with it.

    And tell me Miss Edwina, where do you get those hats. Does the blondie one make them for you????? And where is your sporran and flask????

    Miss Edwina, how smart you look in your tam. I hope you won't forget us and send us a postcard from Edinburgh.
    Enjoy yourself sweetheart as you need a break from the shadow that lurks around the corner.

    That was something that my Scottish relatives used to say all the time.

    Heh, heh, heh. Isn't that the catch phrase from one of the Saturday Night Live sketches, too? That's the first time I heard it. Though it sounds like he got it from somewhere else by what you say.


    Edwina, as always, you are stunning and a delight. Have a marvelous visit and may you be feeling much perkier when you get home.
    I'm sometimes asked "Why do you spend so much of your time and money talking about kindness to animals when there is so much cruelty to men?" I answer: "I am working at the roots." -George T. Angell, reformer (1823-1909)
