I am glad you enjoyed your trip away, Maggie, and sorry you've come home to heating problems. Hope you can get the boiler working again soon |

I eat a varied diet, and am sure Scottish national food can rival some of the French food found outwith the cities of that country. |

Maggie, the World End pub has a grim history. |

The murders in 1977 - after the girls had left the pub? |

Way back in the late 1980's I was billeted for four months in the Copthorne Hotel in Queens Square Glasgow (now renamed the Millenium, I believe) whilst working away from home. |

I've eaten snails - they're okay, as are winkles, but what makes snails any better than winkles? |

I think you'll find the winkle is an edible sea snail. |

There is at least one farm in Scotland that I know of which breeds wild boar and the market for their meat is an increasing one. One thing I did learn is that one has to be very careful around them. |
