Gretna rule ok.

Apart from it's claim to fame as a marriage centre Gretna is also famous from World War One when it was joined with nearby Easteriggs to form a factory 9 miles long and 2 miles wide producing cordite known as the "devil's porridge."

30,000 people, mainly Irish, were employed there although there is nothing but fields between the towns today.


Avoid, rather than check. Check, rather than hurt. Hurt, rather than maim. Maim, rather than kill. For all life is precious, nor can any be replaced.

is that a reason or an excuse?

You decide, I don't give a fuck.

Fascinating.


you know, you know, if a feller named Monroe never fathered bluegrass
he would still be unrecognised as the grand wizard of speed metal

Glad you think so.
