I got as far as 'thenational.scot' and easily resisted the temptation to open The Daily Shortbread and its weekend Girning Sporran supplement.

Ah, but as a rabid royalist, you were never going to be reading a North British paper anyway.

You misconstrue my having an occasional pint in Keith's Royal Hotel as support for the corruption enshrined in patronage.

In fact, in keeping with the views expressed in the various hostelries of that fine Banffshire town, I'd have been told "Awa and bide in Russia" by its conservative clentele when expressing support for trades union activity in 1973 and 1974 when it still returned Bill Baker as Tory MP (once rumoured to have visited the constituency).

Coming up for 1 year of retirement isn't it?

I'm not sure that I don't blame you for all this crap that has befallen us.

And there’s an image of a fans-appointed monarch awaiting display.

By all means carry on.

It would be imprudent to hold governments and capitalism to account, after all, and it'll save the pointing of fingers at immigrants, trades unions, Neil Simpson and the EU as the usual suspects, after all.

Fine

It’s Covid 57 from now on.

I think it's already been assigned the identity Sevcovid-2012, AKA the capitalist jandies, hasn't it?
