Potato flour rather than corn flour? Interesting. Is it easily make-able?

Too late, the time of Brother Wilfried will now be forever known as the Ectopic Era.

There was me thinking that you meant the down to 10 men positional changes were sufficiently abnormal to merit being described as "ectopic". Keep up the good work, 90 mins of watching is beyond ME.

Hatate must have the intrinsic self-destruct button. He has to be commended at least for taking his Scottishness very seriously.

I've never seen "ectopic" used in a non gynacogical context. I'm still amused by your combination of Hatate and "fundament". Excellent word use. Arthur Montford et al. are no match.

I tune in time for your commentary and then check the final score later for added dramatic effect. A draw eh? Oh dear.

Tuning in to Merrydholl Scotsportscene. Is hiding required? How did it come to this? Suddenly Daleks everywhere and every other team in Scotland has a chance.

I had a major thwump yesterday - frightening. Not tempted away - trying 3 languages and chess concurrently. The old me would've done that senza blinking. The new ME makes Auchinleck look like they're Celtic. Ah, but Celtic may make Auchinleck look like... Poorly constructed argument - see above.

Me too. Oscar needs muting. I'd always intended to learn but never did. Now hooked. Most of the chess course so far is 'make the best move' puzzles with few lessons. Solely Italian was the plan but Gaelic, Japanese and Chess proved too tempting.
How accomplished are Auchinleck Talbot at chess?

Did you say that out loud? Oh. As Terry Pratchett once wrote (ish): "whilst wearing a copper suit of armour, standing atop a mountain, in a thunderstorm, shouting 'all gods are bastards'".
I've just heard that it's going to be Kenny Dalglish as Director of Football and John Barnes as manager.

Agreed. It's not as if they're likely to take up our other cause and have a care in the world for us. Here's hoping for less cognitive exertion and more actual football enjoyment - imagine. And a bit less of the expecting any team to beat us. Although, as a drama, it has been a whirlwind.

"Jottered": bravo on word choice. And here was me worried that Man Utd were going to poach him.

You're my TV eyes and ears. No TV subscription is a plus in this new Barnesian era. Skipping the next game and listening to the cruelly axed Iain Anderson on BBC Sounds before it vanishes forever (Radio Scotland have even less of a clue than Parkhead's "Guardians") will be more soothing.

Some people are never happy. Brother Wilfried is ripping up the traditional ways of winning at football.

I'm now enlightened. Thank you. The BR infinite potential well.
At least with Brother Wilfried, excitement seems to be guaranteed. Although, RUD risk comes with that in the space business. Perhaps best to hide behind the sofa for the next two.
