The Weather on TV will be a LOT shorter.

We will only have to wait 5 minutes for the weather girl to get round to us, instead of the usual 15 minutes, while they go all round the houses Scotland etc. Grin

surely you mean scone as in gone?
Well at least there will only be one deviant pronunciation to deal with.

His mum took his boxers to the hotel in his bag while he was having his hair cut. So he wore nothing as a kilt is very warm

Look, I'm please and all that but WTF am I going to do with a JCB, 17 cases of dynamite and 3 million shovels?

Owl, we could still do some remodelling, freshen the place up a bit.

OwlCapone · 19/09/2014 07:43

We could maybe flatten something... Or would Cornwall like to be an island maybe?

FoxSticks · 19/09/2014 07:52

Yay we get to keep the proclaimers. Smile

OwlCapone · 19/09/2014 07:55

And Susan Boyle.

ErrolTheDragon · 19/09/2014 08:09

Good.Smile

But I still want the dragon on the otherwise unchanged flag.

FoxSticks · 19/09/2014 08:23

With or without a penis tongue Errol?

Ididntseeitsoitdidnthappen · 19/09/2014 08:46

What am I going to do with chain of 'haggis and highland cow' rescue centres?

TunipTheUnconquerable · 19/09/2014 08:49

Agree re dragon, Errol.
Maybe that's the kind of thing Cameron was thinking of in his speech about other regions?

OwlCapone · 19/09/2014 09:08

There absolutely should be a dragon on the flag. Perhaps a slightly less penile version though.

OwlCapone · 19/09/2014 09:09

I could round you up a few cows and haggi with my JCB, ididnt

Ididntseeitsoitdidnthappen · 19/09/2014 09:09

Oh please if you'd be so kind
