sorry to ask in such a public way but i am looking for an answer for a question that only someone from fife can answer.. diana
Hi Daga, the Wallace Monument is in Stirling, which is in Stirlingshire .I am in the county of Aberdeenshire, around 150/175 miles away from Stirling, I have been there, when going to the International Convention, (1997?) at Edinburgh.I am totally unfamiliar with the city of Aberdeen, its 50+ miles from me.Perhaps that's where you saw the Turkish restaraunt?
Best wishes, Shirley.

Hey Daga, unfortunately, there is no Turkish restaraunt where I live. I am in Aberdeenshire, and I have never been to Fife as far as I know.I just thought I might be close enough to help.

Hi Diana I am in Aberdeenshire, is that near enough? You may send me a private message if you want.I will check back in a few hours.

my mom (a baptized jw who hasn't been to a meeting willfully in years) commented today on how the birds in the neighborhood have been acting more aggressive lately.
how they've been taunting and divebombing our cat, being loud and obnoxious, etc..(the probable reason for this is that our cat probably killed a baby bird or something).
she said the birds are getting ready to eat animals.
Hope this link works

Its about a buzzard that was attacking cyclists because it was trying to protect its young, any way I can just guess the reaction of some JWs. Well, I'm afraid the buzzard bought it when it tackled a vehicle.
Meat pie, chew on MY pastry, birdy!

well, our lorries are different to your trucks.. ours are flat fronted, yours have a bonnet.. ours are taller, yours are wider.. ours go like sh*t off a shovel, your kenworths couldn't pull a greased kitten out of bed.

Hello there, I know little or nothing about lorries, trucks etc, however, I would like to say what amazing blokes the 'local ' drivers are. We live on the edge of one of the largest plantation forests in UK,and there are loads of lorries going in and fetching out trees, (minus branches). These chaps have to drive miles up single track lanes before entering the forest, some have two 'trailer' parts, and they have external grabs at the end of the open trailers, so they have to sit out there and load up trees, often in blizzards and driving conditions shocking to behold, near white-outs and stuff. Then drive back down tiny lanes and tracks all loaded up.Often no radio or mobile fone contact.Amazing.
Also I would like to say supermarket home delivery van drivers are my current heroes, without whom our family would soon starve, as DH is off to foreign parts with the car,for 5 weeks.
I must say US HGV's are much snazzier looking, sorry!

Hello again English Patient, I am called Meat Pie, because I love meat pies and because when I went out on the ministry its what I bought myself as a treat for 'being good', a hot steak pie from the bakery either before or after going out. I was famous for it!
