He's allegedly supposed to be up in court today; is that not massively unusually fast to be in court the same day you're arrested? I find it especially odd that no one seems to know what he's been arrested for given how quickly it's moving.

"Former First Minister of Scotland Alex Salmond has said he “absolutely refutes” any accusations of criminality after he was charged on Thursday with two counts of attempted rape and nine counts of sexual assault. "

In a long-awaited statement to the Scottish parliament on her plans, Sturgeon said the proposed legislation would set out how a new referendum would be held if Holyrood were granted the powers to stage one.

We’re definitely moving north if we leave the EU with no deal and Scotland votes for independence.

We're planning to do it anyway, it's just a case of when.

Every time I stay at a YHA I look at the wallmap of their network and think there's something odd about the missing 'head' of the island. Guess it's something I'm going to have to get used to.

Excuse me what the fuck, you’re not allowed to leave the BMoLaH crew.

Don’t think it’ll disappear, champ. Unless there’s a yet-to-be discovered tectonic plate running along Hadrian’s Wall.

Scotland will just be greyed out like the option you need to use in a Windows app.

Funny you should say that! Hadrian's wall runs down the line where two ancient plates collided. I'll find a source

Unless the Brexit thing is ditched (quite unlikely) and we get major restructuring and rebalancing of the consitution (very unlikely), I fully understand why Scotland would want to leave and would no longer shed a tear. We're at the seperate bedrooms stage of the relationship, I think.

Hmm, not quite. It seperates Highland from Lowland

Laurentia

Laurentia is the North American paleocontinent, which also includes present day Northwest Ireland, Scotland, Greenland, the North Slope of Alaska, and the Chukotsk peninsula of NE Russia.[6] During the Ordovician-Devonian time, Laurentia remained at the same paleolatitude, slightly south of the equator in the southern hemisphere, with relatively the same paleolongitude.[7] Major defining tectonic events include the Neoproterozoic rift sequence from the breakup of Grenville basement rocks, thermal subsidence related to the Early Cambrian to Middle Ordovician drift sequence during the opening of the Iapetus ocean, the Appalachian accretionary events to the eastern continental margin, and the resulting foreland-basin and clastic wedges.[8]

Avalonian Terranes

Avalonian terranes that constitute Avalonia are the modern day countries Northern France and Ardennes of Belgium, England, Wales, southeastern Ireland, eastern Newfoundland, Nova Scotia, southern New Brunswick and some coastal parts of New England. The basement consisted of Late Precambrian age arc rocks, and is believed to come from the margin of Gondwana, sometime in the Early Ordovician.[6] Avalonia rifted from Gondwana, during the onset of igneous activity in the Ardennes, Wales, and SE Ireland that consumed the Tornquist Sea oceanic crust. It drifted in a northerly direction and probably collided with Baltica in the Late Ordovician, and then with Laurentia in the Late Devonian. Evidence for this is consistent with paleomagnetic data which place Avalonia at a temperate latitude during the Ordovician and in a subtropical latitude during the Late Ordovician through the Devonian.[6]

Ace! Will watch later. Is that the guy who did some videos on London's unbuilt history a few back?

Snappy, educational and humorous.

Rolls off the tongue, that.

Wow, really? I had no idea you were even considering it.

The Egg went to fucking Albania!

Closer, but still wrong on two words.

How can I be closer yet still have the same number of words wrong. I want a new adjudicator

Because it's still the wrong word, but it's closer in meaning to the correct word.
