I am a newbie here, a traveller looking for a new home, a home with like minded people who have Scotlands best interests at heart.

There's a photo of me at this site http://kennysheerin.blogspot.com/...ew-with-independentista-dave.html , I'm the one holding up the demand "REFERENDUM NOW". No doubt you will receive an "official" welcome from one of the moderators of the Our Scotland forums, but here's an "unoffical" welcome from me. | urchurdan wrote: | | a home with like minded people | I hope you don't expect us to be TOO like-minded, otherwise you may be disappointed. People on here have different views and can be quite argumentative. As for me, some folk have claimed I could start an argument in any empty room. That's not true, but it's true I have disagreed with almost everybody at one time or another. But I do think I have Scotland's best interests at heart. |

Everyone is entitled to be true to their own beliefs Dave, I thoroughly respect that, as long as their beliefs do no harm to Scotland, thats fair enough with me.

That's the wee blackhouse on Drumossie moor, right beside Culloden Battlefield, if I'm not mistaken?!
Spent a LOT of time at Culloden... _________________ "Gordon Brown mistook a glut of cheap money and a global bull market for his own administrative genius. In so doing, he wrecked the economy.

Aye, well spotted - my wife and I were at Inverness games again this year, and made our annual pilgramage to lay flowers at the Cairn.
