So Long and thanks

Well, it had to happen sometime. Inverness Caley Thistle relegated ten minutes ago. (If you're an Old Firm supporter you can stop reading now. You really don't know how it feels. Missing out on a league title? What a shame!)
Anyway, thanks for the memories. The North will rise again. Sometime...
And this is how we got there.



And I won't even mention civilisation, city status, fastest growing city in Europe, etc. But I have. There you go. Good luck to St. Johnstone, bring on the County.

And Roscoe. Don't worry, you're still the main man.

...or given our present plight, m'aidez!

Anyway, here's one of my favourite scenes from the Ken Loach film, Land And Freedom.



And just to add a wee bit of the old learning technologies, the following are links to the same video clip.
The first is on YouTube with all the associated clutter, inane comments, attempted spamming and other such distractions. (To be fair there's just a bit of the good old political factionalism here, but if you use YouTube a lot, you'll know what I mean).
The second link filters the same video through QuietTube, which as it says provides "video without the distractions". There's a bookmarklet available too as well as a shortened, persistent bitly URL. Thoroughly recommended.
