health, like so many things in the human psyche, is only missed when it has gone.
I hope he recovers and does well now.
as for scotland, not sure if its true but i heard some funny conspiracy stuff about scotland owning key parts of london, so when scotland goes independeant it'll ally with france and whip england back to the dark ages... but I'd take that with a pinch of salt.
It'd be a shame for scotland to opt out of the UK as it does have some positives, it also has a bunch of negatives.
I think I'd rather be in scotland, i have a lot of family there and its beautiful with real scenery (unlike this soft southern rubbish - i mean what kind of country planner makes their cliffs out of chalk FFS.. total waste of time that one).
for example:
Highest Scottish Mountain: 1344M
Highest English Hill: 978M
Biggest Lake (loch) in Scotland: 147.87Msq
Biggest Lake in England: 5.69Msq
clearly by this logic, scotland should be independant.
(I think I should be a politician)

You speak the same language as us, have the same appreciation for beer as us, and share the same cultural values. Sooner or later the two countries are going to merge. I hope. Glorious, it would be.
Best wishes to your father, Req.
In other news, Cracked is full of whiney white knights who seem to operate under the delusion feminists have a point.

See Kelly Brook on this morning (didn't watch it but saw a thing about it) laughing about how she beat on her exs but it's fine cause their bigger than her... sexism is only sexist if it's aimed at women, so say the femwangs.

Best of luck to your Dad, Req.
You want a conspiracy theory? The next-but-one Stewart pretender is the crown princess of Liechtenstein, and her great-grandfather was German commander on the Somme when the Highland Division was getting slaughtered there. Would be interesting if they invited them back...
I've really enjoyed Scotland, especially Edinburgh and Glencoe. I'd love to live in Britain for a while if I could, there's just so much history.

Yes, but when you start with "help help I'm being oppressed" from someone who's job basically entails being a very respectable housekeeper with very flexible hours (Yes, you, Mrs Pankhurst), then you generally can assume the movement is a bit silly.

So today U2's album, Songs of Innocence, is available as a free download to all iTunes users. Something to do with Apple's latest phone launch event, which I could care less about, but hey! Free U2...

How is your dad, Req? Feeling better? Is he scared enough to change his diet? He's fine. There's just a whole thing with our Most Glorious ACA that's frankly retarded, which is forcing him to act like an invalid (or it would if he paid any attention to suggestions) until late September. I have no idea if I can get him to change his diet. I do feel inspired to make a planned menu template for a weekly thing so that I'll worry less when I move overseas.

The normal amounts for acceptance most places worldwide are 100 hours of instruction and 10 hours of practicum.
I'm trying to get into Korea for starters.
