@GyllKing @chris_cross1498 Have any of those people actually READ The Handmaid's Tale?

[Paul Thompson @DocPaperback]

@GyllKing @DrPamGosal Q was a colleague of mine at St A. and is a personal friend. I am sick to death of all the not-so-thinly-veiled racist attacks on someone I know to be a fine person.
Yes, I call these attacks out for what they are - racist.
Nothing more, nothing less.
Bare-faced racism.

[Paul Thompson @DocPaperback]

@DrPamGosal Q is a personal friend of mine and a fine person.
I'm not a member of the Green Party, but I know that Q will be an excellent MSP.
I object to and strongly resent any ad hominem attack on a personal friend, and I will not let any such attack pass unchallenged.

@is_glasgow New Mill of where? 🤣

[Paul Thompson @DocPaperback]

@maitrayee_rc @LearNonsense @DrAnindyaR @sgsah @staenglish Well done you! 👏

[Paul Thompson @DocPaperback]

@miffythegamer This. Minority opinion, but this nonetheless.

@RichardAngwin I would try to save his life.
I detest the man and everything he stands for. I detest his barely-articulate lies. I detest his being a predator.
But the decent thing to do is to give him a plain lesson in how a human being should behave.
BIG piece of my mind afterwards!

@PulpLibrarian No thanks. When it comes to a Benelli, I'd rather have the Benelli Sei - a screaming, six-cylinder, 740cc, road-missile.

@PulpLibrarian 2/2
... which even had a kind of Paris-Dakar version called (I think) the Vision CE.

Then there was the BMW C1 scooter...

@deredordica @PulpLibrarian Only if you forget to put your feet down.

@CookinAsia @msjanebond007 @PulpLibrarian mmmnnnn... to me the Scimitar was just a car. 🙂

[Paul Thompson @DocPaperback]

@CookinAsia @PulpLibrarian Ah, but then there was the Bond Bug!

[Paul Thompson @DocPaperback]

@PeteSamuels5 @PulpLibrarian I'm reminded of my pal's Reliant Supervan, into which he had put a tuned 850cc Robin engine. The speedo indicated up to 90mph and then there was a stop. At the stop the car would still be accelerating! Oh, the double-takes we got as we overtook cars on the M62! 🤣

[Paul Thompson @DocPaperback]

@omd_tim @PulpLibrarian Villiers rather than BSA.

[Paul Thompson @DocPaperback]

@PulpLibrarian The engine was a Villiers 2-stroke motorcycle engine. In some earlier Bond models you actually had to open the bonnet, put your foot inside, and use a kick-starter.

@is_glasgow I recall sitting on the banks of Strangford Lough, near Whiterock, having a picnic in a drumlin landscape, watching swans on the water as the daylight faded.

[Paul Thompson @DocPaperback]

@UndisScot Och, it's a broch!
I'll have sixpence on it being Mousa.

[Paul Thompson @DocPaperback]

I'm trying to find the title of a science fiction story where a human undertakes an experiment to inhabit the mind of a fish.
Ring a bell with anyone?

@NadiaWhittomeMP She simply did not answer the question!
