Pick yer Windae, Billy Boy!
(that is a very, very funny remark if you imagine my accent.
People from Glasgow(*) will invite you to pick your window in the pub,
before being thrown through it. A Billy Boy is someone of the Protestant
faith, from King William of Orange)
Deliciously relevant, the Scottish Parliament opened three years late,
at a cost of £431 million on an original budget of £40 million.
And a 12 foot wooden beam still came loose and nearly fell on the MPs.
(*) I'm a Bankie. Someone who comes from Clydebank. Not a Glaswegian.
Got anything tae say aboot that?
