1,2,3,4...........

"What are we campaigning for?"

There's the beginnings of a chant right there. Current e-petition signatures stand at 1,233 at time of writing. Somebody's gonnae get a nicely rounded number if they get off their arse and spend the whole 2 minutes it takes to sign up.

I could use a "ghost" account and bag it myself but that would make a mockery of the democratic process and, as we've already got a Scot or 2 in the door doon South, it's probably best not to rock the boat.

I've been busy and lost track of how things were going. I expected the number to be much higher. Just shows my faith in human nature and how often it leads to disappointment.

But hey, I'm on holiday and have a whole country to gallavant around if I so choose.

I love being Scottish, I do.

"It's criminal. There ought to be a law..."

...As Bon Scott once sang. Actually, there is. Our wild-camping English cousins are breaking the law every time they pitch their tents anywhere other than their gardens. If you want to save them from a life of crime, Darren has started an e-petition here.

I get the distinct impression tho' that some of them don't want to be saved. Tough titties. It's a rubbish law and should be scrapped in favour of something along the lines of our Scottish model. (There we go, leading the world again).

The Boy Hope is offering a Buy One, Get One Free on beers for anyone that signs*.
