It looks like Nigel has some questions to answer.

I always knew they were right wing nutters, though.

It never ceases to surprise me how newspaper proprietors change the colour of their shirts purely on the direction the wind is blowing. Did Rupert Murdoch owner of the Sun & News of the World not have both - a blue shirt and a red shirt ;-)

Researching:
I am researching the Wotherspoon family from the Old/New Monkland areas of Scotland, some moved to the Leslie and Kelty areas of Fife and I'm having problems linking the Wotherspoon's from Leslie and the Wotherspoon's from Kelty. I am also researching the Clusker family from Co. Meath in Ireland who moved to West Lothian and from there to Fife............"Vita non est vivere sed valere vita est"

''The only dynamic political force in the UK is UKIP, a party whose members & supporters have spoken of the developing world as 'bongo-bongo land'; referred to Muslims as 'breeding ten times faster than us' & blamed the floods on the legislation of gay marriage'.

Weird.

Yesterday’s Daily Mail (Exclusive by Barbara Davies) contained a huge article about well known women stage & TV stars who were conned into investing sizable sums in a ‘pyramid scheme’.

I thought everybody & their dog knew well enough not to touch such supposedly ‘easy money’ investments.
