We just cancelled our January Cancun reservation--Argyll and Bute here we come!

Good for you, you'll be no doubt piped ashore with full honours, besides we do a better whisky than that Mexican lot.

It looks like a Cordyline Australis (actually native to NZ not Oz).

Wow, no pithy retort from Mr Grant, just lots of suspicion...

I wasn't holding you personally responsible for said tree.

ATTENTION Kerrowdown.


US drones heading over your way.
Take shelter.
I'll advise when danger is over.

Too funny.
