"Regional div" is an unfortunate turn of phrase.

"Regional div" is an unfortunate turn of phrase. There were district wards and regional divisions. Nothing sinister I'm afraid. Lol |

The spreadsheets don't copy properly then the 1st edit becomes double spacing for some reason so its 3 edits for each post. I can almost see the Falkirk wheel from my flat. |

Well folks that's all the data entered now. Can you imagine the dug's breakfast it would have been if I hadn't booked a place for each division? Hope the detractors appreciate that now.

I'm not privy to knowledge of what Kezia consumes of a morning, but I'd wager that it does not consist of healthy, nutritious placeholder posts. |

As you are from Somerset I shall assume you don't know what a dug is. Either that or you are telling me in code that Kezia has Winalot for her breakfast. |

It is the past tense of dig, which does not make it a noun. It is none of our business if the leader of Scottish Labour enjoys sampling the delights of Pedigree to start the day. |

The Wally Dug I aye mind o' that wee hoose that stood on the brae, Its lum was aye reekin', its roof made o' stray. The ootside was bonny, the inside was snug, But whit I mind best o' was the wee wally dug. It stood in a corner, high up on the shelf, And keepit an ee on the best o' the delf. It was washed twice a year, frae its tail tae its lug, And pit back on the shelf, was the wee wally dug,. When oor John got mairrit tae sweet Jeannie Blue, The auld folks they gied him a horse an' a coo, But when I left the hoose, ma hert gied a tug, For a' mither gied me was the wee wally dug. There's an auld saying, 'Ne'er look a gift horse in the moo', But I looked that wee dug frae its tail tae its broo' An' a fun' a wee slit at the back o' its lug, It was stuffed fu' o' notes, was the wee wally dug. I tain it hame tae oor Lizzle tae pit on a shelf, An' I telt her the worth o' that wee bit o' delf. An' we aye feed it yet through that hole in its lug, It's a guid bit o' stuff, is the wee wally dug. |

Hence 'wallies' for false teeth (once commonly made of porcelain, of course) and 'wally close' for a tiled tenement stair. |

The Wally Dug pub in Edinburgh was supposedly established in 1811 (although it may well have had another name then). www.wallydugbar.com/ |

I was surprised to here dogs arnae called dugs in Northumberland though. Dinnae want tae appear rude but the pic o that wally dug on the pub sign looks a bit like Kez lol |

The Wally Dug I aye mind o' that wee hoose that stood on the brae, Its lum was aye reekin', its roof made o' stray. The ootside was bonny, the inside was snug, But whit I mind best o' was the wee wally dug. It stood in a corner, high up on the shelf, And keepit an ee on the best o' the delf. It was washed twice a year, frae its tail tae its lug, And pit back on the shelf, was the wee wally dug,. When oor John got mairrit tae sweet Jeannie Blue, The auld folks they gied him a horse an' a coo, But when I left the hoose, ma hert gied a tug, For a' mither gied me was the wee wally dug. There's an auld saying, 'Ne'er look a gift horse in the moo', But I looked that wee dug frae its tail tae its broo' An' a fun' a wee slit at the back o' its lug, It was stuffed fu' o' notes, was the wee wally dug.

I never understood it either but now I know. |
