My goodness the Dunfermline men are an attractive lot.

what a delightful man (not)

NoNoNoBodyInTheTomb · 22/03/2007 14:16

I love the way the that in the picture, he looks like he's actually breaking wind at that moment!!

Pubs are so smelly since the smoking ban, though

MrsGumby · 22/03/2007 14:16

Marty Feldman's love child.

Marina · 22/03/2007 14:16

So he travels from Edinburgh to Dunfermline to fart in a bar...? What a lovely character.

MrsSpoon · 22/03/2007 14:16

Ah but he lives in Edinburgh.

runs< before Expat catches up with me.

thank god I never worked on that paper

do they have a lot of space to fill? that quote goes on for ages

MrsSpoon · 22/03/2007 14:19

NoNoNoBodyInTheTomb, LOL, he also looks like he has just smelled it for the first time.

I'm sure the newspaper people took a few photos and picked the one where he looked most unhinged.

The writing is fantastic, IMO, really cheered up a Thursday.

marina didnt you read it

he visits his parents in Cowdenbeath and then pops into the pub on the way home

Cowdenbeath is so classy too...

ROFL at "I didn?t even have a chance to draw breath."

Probably a good thing, surely?

MrsSpoon · 22/03/2007 14:19

LOL Cappuccino, it's obviously been a quiet week.

mrsspoon do you frequent thirsty kirstys..?

nickytwotimes · 22/03/2007 14:21

fgs! and i thought the ayrshire post was bad!! lol

MrsSpoon · 22/03/2007 14:21

NP I can stand proud and say I have never been in Thirsty Kirstys, so cannot comment on the aroma.

its true though that although the pubs DID stink of fags til last year, at least it covered the stench of BO, stale beer and farts

piglit · 22/03/2007 14:23

It's at times like this I really miss Scotland.

nailpolish · 22/03/2007 14:26

lol piggie

do you ever get to visit?

MrsSpoon · 22/03/2007 14:27

Ah, the fresh air.

All my family are still there and I used to go lots. Bit harder with the dses being so small (2 and 1) but we intend to go and visit a lot more when flying with them isn't a logistical nightmare. Car journey is 9 hours so that's a no go.

doggiesayswoof · 22/03/2007 14:42

rofl at 'that's the last fart you do in this pub'

...and other phrases you don't hear every day

MrsSpoon · 22/03/2007 21:59

An unapologetic bump as I still think this is pure class.

MrsSpoon · 22/03/2007 22:01

He's gorgeous!

Scootergirl · 22/03/2007 22:02

Amazing!

MrsSpoon · 22/03/2007 22:04

Actually I think this is my favourite quote from the licensing guy:-

?You can?t just have one guy sitting there farting his day away and nobody else coming in."
