Tales of Home [1]

Home. Both Bilbo and Frodo thought of it to gt them through the darkest times
Here's a chance to sell your hometown or city. Be that by talltale, video or pictures.

Found this on youtube.

No n e got any pics of vids of their homeland?! Where's the national pride folks?

Heres a 15 second clip showing my Uncle (the one doing the welding) making a quick repair to a ferry, mid-sailing. Seems to have generated some concerns he was not wearing a harness and other H&S nonsense!

Starnge the things you stumble acorss completely by accident on the web- I discovered this- an old class photo from my primary school.
I'm in there somewhere- I wonder can you guess which is me?!!

the blond person next to the one with the glasses.

Nope. Sorry Norc, not me. Its hard this one as I'm only about 10 and therefore only slightly drunk. I will say though as a clue- I am not blonde haired.

As a secondary game- can you pick out the Americans from the Scots?

found I video of some tourists driving. They sounded a bit surprised when they saw the airport ... anyways, they drive to my island, LOL.


reindeer racing in town. I really wanna try that.


and a little comercial thingi


lots of national pride here, Petty Love my hometown!

do you have a bow-tie?

do you have a bow-tie? or a tie?

you are the red haired one with the dark blue jumper. and thats me with the pig-tails on the front row
I reckon one of the American kids is the boy with glasses and dark hair, next to the other red haired kid with glasses. and maybe the blonde boy and the asian looking boy next to you are Americans too.

Norc- thats what I like to see a bit of pride in your homeland and town!

Thats a lovely bit of bridge engineering too, I like it.

Andnow I know how Father Xmas gets round the world in one night- those reindeer are blooming fast!

But how come in my country if we get a few inches of snow the whole country grinds to a halt and you lot seem to get by no problem?


Yes I am wearing a tie.

Mrs Figg- I am curious as to why you picked that individual? Any particular reason?

And yes they are all Americans indeed- well done - there's plenty more mind. About half the class.

I picked him because its you.

And you are right Mrs Figg - I think looking at it I was hung over that day, and most of the rest of them too. I think I'm sleeping it off.

and you look so sweet and tranquil too, what happened?

I notice you're sitting as far away from him as you can get. I bet he pulled your pigtails!

We Scotshobbits are big on a good bit of engineering and bridge building. Got a thing for engineering that does the job but also 'fits' the landscape- thats the trick.


And David I'm more worried about her remembering all those game sof 'kiss, cuddle, torture' that we played at my primary school!

your town sounds suspiciously like Brigadoon? those American kids were probably decendants of Gene Kelly.

How adorable . Also that little fellow seems to be the only one with possibly blue eyes, hard to see though. I TOLD you I knew you are pretty. Hasia is looking, she just woke up , she says "he looked like a cute little gentleman from Charlie Brown".
Norc, you are all so beautful and Hasia and I feel rather sad that we can't see reindeer races, we so love reindeer, you have no idea. And you would always have a white Christmas. We can get very cold snowy winters, but we can also have Christmases that are like spring in a wine making area.

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah, gasp,hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. That, was rather humerous.

I made the mistake of showing that photo to my mother today- so she dug out the old photo albums!

It does provide an opportunity however to set the record staright and prove I have always been a crabbit tyrant. Cant have people getting the mistaken notion I was nice!

omg those little knees are adorable. thats one crabbit tyrant.

that's just too cute ^^

Cute!!!
Look at those eyes- ready to kill! (I think that was the first day I blew up a crabbit meter)

Awwwwwwwww!!!!!!!! Petty!!! How did that sweet little boy end up being the crabbit scottshobbit who drains my Buckie???
