Not sure that's a Scottish slow air ye have up from the great Seamus - I think not - so here's one of my favourite Scottish songs about passing on to whatever the fuck is after (sung by the late great Hamish Imlach) : <object width="320" height="260"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/2pAImglJZpA&hl=fr_FR&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/2pAImglJZpA&hl=fr_FR&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="320" height="260"></embed></object> In honour of M McL's Scottish roots... Last time I spotted M McL was on a trip home - there was some shite Reality TV thing where the celebrity guinea pigs had to try to get themselves elected as 'king' of a wee Scottish village somewhere up towards the Shetlands. Most of the inhabitants resembled clones of the (DUP) Robinsons. Poor Malc - despite his sharp wit - wasn't exactly their cup of tea. Only saw one episode so I don't know who won - wouldn't bet he got into double figures though. I wasn't entitled to vote meself. We'll just have to hope that all remaining copies of Sigue Sigue Sputnik's efforts will be buried/burned with him :-( Valérie spotted this last night and learned me the news…
