WHAT'S IN A NAME? Those well versed in geography will be aware that several countries that were once part of Yugoslavia now describe themselves as Macedonia, FYR (denoting: Former Yugoslav Republic) etc.
So, If Scotland gains its independence after the forthcoming referendum, the remainder of the United Kingdom will be known as the "Former United Kingdom" (FUK).
In a bid to discourage Scots from voting 'yes' in the referendum, the Government has now begun to campaign with the slogan:
"Vote NO for FUK's sake"
Are we all OK with that? .......................................

I know it was a long time ago, but for a long long time, all menevery-where wore skirts. They used to knit in Scotland, too. Where do you think those lovely Aran jumpers came from ?
Cheers,
