I know what you're all gonna say- "this is complete BS!"

but towards the end it does say there may be a reasonable explanation.

Wierd.......

Haggis isn't sheep brains. See DI's dictionary description.

I can't think of anything good to say about this news story... it's a pretty stupid news story.

I take it that the 'Independant' is a realiable source? Or is it another one of these fraud news websites?

Either way, I think it's humorous, simply because of its absurdness.

Well, the Independant newspaper is a broadsheet. Meaning that it isn't full of tabloid shite. I'm guessing that it's pretty reliable.

There is no shit in haggis. Just because it exits your body as shit, doesn't mean it contains shit to begin with.

Your posts do contain shit though. (f*ck this really isn't like me, but I just COULD NOT RESIST!)

I'll tell you what's up - nothing. That's the whole problem, the news people have nothing British to report.

As Dino says, nothing is happening. How about you Aussies start a war for your independance? That would create something to talk about.

That's not our sort of thing. Remember: we're the first independantlt federated nation to begin by a vote and not a war. We did try to break from the crown a few years back but the vote got hijacked by people who wanted the president directly voted like the american system.
