I've seen some castles ancient
And wandered by the sea
I've heard the seagulls plaintive
And watched them flying free
I've wrestled with pronunciation
Of lochs and rivers and touns
Have changed my own enunciation
So understanding can aboond
My correspondence staggers (sorry!)
Am feeling colder daily
Tonight I'm promised haggis
At a genuine Scottish ceilidh
The countryside surrounding
Is quite like the South Island
The hospitality is astounding
And the people here are grand
It's nice to know my tipuna
Came from this warming place
I should have come here sooner
And found my own wee space :-)
A mathematician, a physicist, and an engineer are riding a train through Scotland.
ReplyDeleteThe engineer looks out the window, sees a black sheep, and exclaims, "Hey! They've got black sheep in Scotland!"
The physicist looks out the window and corrects the engineer, "Strictly speaking, all we know is that there's at least one black sheep in Scotland."
The mathematician looks out the window and corrects the physicist, " Strictly speaking, all we know is that is that at least one side of one sheep is black in Scotland."
