    It works for me. But it's too bad that they're doing that.

    Got that as well from Yahoo as well.

    Here's the article on The Scotsman.

    Free people are not equal, and equal people are not free.
    An unarmed man can only flee from evil, and evil is not overcome by fleeing from it.
    An armed society is a polite society.

    I got the link.

    I understand wanting to save $, but at what cost? I say keep the kilts standars high but stop paying $300 for a tiolet seat (or is that just our military that does that ;-)

    I read that in the Scotsman. I don't think you should put a price on tradition.

    BTW- the original link now works. :confused:

    Bet the MoD is going to be very disappointed when morale collapses and recruitment becomes near impossible.
    Everything in excess! To enjoy the flavor of life take big bites. Moderation is for monks.

    Maybe that's their long term plan - another brick knocked out of the wall of Scottish nationalism?
