This instruction is already in the U.S. and could come to the U.K., if we don’t take care!! 😳😩 George Orwell was nearly 80 years ahead of his time!

@TheStingisBack Saw the first episode in 1969, in a local hotel having a sneaky pint as a 15 year old. 😮🍺 Favourite sketch currently is - Putting things on top of other things. 😅

@ththighland @GurnNurn I used to work in the Bank of Scotland in Nairn back in the 1970’s. Now live in Peebles and we lost our BoS in May this year. And the branch in Hawick is now scheduled for closure. A (sad) sign of the times! 🙁

@NairnGolfClub Used to be called the “Newton” when I lived in Nairn in the 1960’s/70’s. 🏌🏻‍♂️😀

Much-loved childrens TV presenter Glen Michael has died at the age of 99. Who remembers watching him every Sunday on STV? With his wee dug and his talking lamp Paladin. His ‘Cartoon Cavalcade’ was a godsend for kids when we had a tiny amount of TV channels.

@NairnGolfClub Always loved playing this 9 holes, back in the 60’s. Was the Newton course back then, but me and my pals had a great time there. ❤️🏌️😊
