Yes Airdrie.

Last weekend, I was in the Bon Accord pub, (lost 36 - 0 to Arbroath once I believe) on the way to watching Partick Thistle beat Penicuik Athletic in the Scottish Cup.

I've asked about this on an Arbroath Facebook page and someone posted this. Seems like it goes right back to Norse times and streets were names as such.

The Norse or the Vikings?

Thanks though Les, not being on fb my research came to a dead end. Found an Arbroath historian on LinkedIn but needed a premium account to message him 🙄.

More than 1 in 100 Scotsmen are descendants of the "Berber" + "Tuareg" tribesmen  of the Sahara. You can ask me anything but I don't know what happened to the camels.

I’ve been to Iraq. I know EXACTLY what happens to the camels 🐪🐪🐪 😉


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'
