@Thebratdragon@mastodon.scot @Wen@mastodon.scot came here to say this! What a self-entitled dobber.
Morning! 😍🌅 #Kilchoan
Bogha Caol Àrd visible thanks to the low tide. Wish I'd not been such a lazy article and had taken this photo 20 minutes ago when the whole thing was showing 🤦🏼♀️ #Kilchoan
It was a cracker of a day for 2 shinty tournaments in Bridge of Allan today! Got my vitamin d several times over! #shinty #iomain #camanachd #CamanachdAssociation
@spytfyre@mastodon.scot It actually does have Christoper Walken vibes!
Me and Bobby McGee was a song I heard *often* as a child. Love that song. It was only about 10 years ago that I found out the line is "somewhere near Salinas..." and not, as I had always thought, "somewhere miscellaneous". Anyway, this random toot is brought to you by the fact that I'm reading East of Eden and I cannot get the song out of my head. #RandomToot
Bha mi air a ran dan a-raoir, tuilleadh 's a chòir òl is tuilleadh 's a chòir ithe. Bha oidhche air leth againn le deagh charaidean, ach tha cùisean air a bhith car dùbhlanach an-diugh. Obh obh. Cha tig an aois leatha fhèin.
Bha cèilidh (dannsa) againn san sgoil a-nochd airson #SeachdainNaGaidhlig a chomharrachadh. Bha e cho math an òigridh fhaicinn a dannsa, is iad làn beans. Thig crìoch air an t-saoghal, ach mairidh gaol, ceòl is Highland Schottisches! #Gàidhlig
Question for Scottish Mastodon: is it Haudit and Daudit or Haudit and Dodit ???
Daughter watching the new #Balamory. She is finding it difficult to come to terms with the changes 😂

@alexlac51 @bodhipaksa that's how I am with Gaelic... I know how to say it, but the finer points of spelling/grammar... not so much!
Question: when someone says "see you at the back of 10", what do you think they mean?
Saw an excellent, epic pantomime, MacCamelot, at #Kilchoan Community Centre tonight. So many people involved, and such a laugh. Loved it!
Ag èisteachd ri #Tiompan... an dàrna phrògram mu dheireadh. 'Se seo a rud as fheàrr a chluinnear air #RadioNanGàidheal! Carson idir a tha e a' tighinn gu crìoch? 😭

@peterbrown 😂 that's how I felt the first time I went to Mallaig (which was surprisingly recently, as we'd had no reason to go there before).

@BarneyDellar you have?? I'm so glad it's not just me 😂😂 TBH even though I know the actual words, after decades of singing it wrong, I keep doing it my way regardless 😅

"Compassion in literature is a substitute for charity, allowing a man to congratulate himself on his humanity ('salt tears have gone bowling down his cheek') without there being any change in his behaviour. Sentimental art rouses 'the sympathies and the indignation of a modern audience' only for them to assume 'that their moral responsibilities are sufficiently fulfilled by the emotions they have been induced to feel'." 🎯 From Electric Spark, by Frances Wilson #Bookstodon #AmReading

@Wen@mastodon.scot @adapalmer@wandering.shop @kim_harding@mastodon.scot indeed. An egregious omission.
EXCELLENT! I mean, the system sucks, but I am so glad that this has gone right for you both! Woo!
