Just love how many fans have taken their pipes to America!

4/8 Septle.🙂

Another 6/6 Wordle! 😢

Could I just mention that iit's been raining here in Argyll today?

Typical of Trump to go in early with announcing Keir Starmer's resignation. No class. But we knew that.

I too thought Starmer a fundamentally decent if profoundly apolitical man. Just a pity that his indecision seemed final.

@BBCr4today So why not ask the Israeli guest who started the February 28th war, and whether or not Bibi twisted the Presidential arm?

6/6 Wordle. Despite 3 correct letters in line 2! 😡

Let's face it, with a few honourable exceptions, we are a team of journeymen. If we get through, as Clarke says, it won't get any easier

3/6 Wordle. 🙂

Howls of anguish at the shotgun marriage of Scottish Screen and the SAC to launch Creative Scotland. Now Screen Scotland (sound familiar?) is to become a stand alone agency. As they say: what goes around, comes around.

It's not good news for Indy fans whoever is in Number 10.

So all Scotland now probably needs to do is draw with Brazil. What can possibly go wrong?

I don't doubt that Russia is at it. (As is Israel and probably China.) Yet remain unconvinced that the MOD should be given more good money to throw after bad.

If the Strait of Hormuz opens and negotiations carry on re nukes, we're back to the status quo ante. So what exactly was this war for?

Been watching the McGinn goal on repeat 😃

Holyrood finally gets it right on Murrell saga. My column in today's Sunday National

Septle bonus 4/7

Septle 3/8 😊

The world's first trillionaire knows nothing about UK and especially NI politics, which is apparently no barrier to his displaying his ignorance online. Butt right out Musk.

Just caught Adidas ad with McTominay. Mon Scotland!

5/6 Wordle. 🤭

Was privileged to meet David Hockney at the William Hardie gallery in Glasgow many moons ago.

4/7 Septle bonus. Still struggling with main event. 🤔

My all time favourite (and elderly) sweatshirt features a Hockney drawing of his then dachshund. RIP Yorkshire's finest.

My definition of a real artist is someone who rejects repetition in favour of innovation. The now late David Hockney had that quality in spades.

6/6 Wordle. 😧

Can you imagine trying to explain to wee weans why masked men are trying to torch their homes? Shame on those Scots who piggybacked on Belfast violence.

4/7 Septle bonus. 🙂

Before we give the MOD lots of new money, it would be prudent to inquire about all the funds they've managed to burn through. They are the worst performing department in town.

When I went to the States previously, the ESTA visa was NEVER retrospectively changed. What fresh hell is this in Trumpland?

Our breakdown of Wes Streeting’s donors has been doing the rounds online for the last year. Now we’ve updated it – with another £55,000 from OPD Group.

2/6 Wordle. 😊

A poster has now given me full info about what measures the SNP have put in place to avoid future fraud. They seem first rate. (However there's the faint sound of stable doors being locked after bolted gee gees.)

4/6 Wordle. 🤔

5/7 Septle bonus. Too many possibles.

5/8 Septle. Very topical.🙂

I agree that an inquiry into the Murrell affair is none of a Westminter's cttee business. But there does need to be an inquiry at Holyrood - quite separate from police concerns.

Wordle fail despite 3 correct letters 😡

It is the 7th of "flaming" June and I have just put the heating off to take the dug out. 🤬

6/6 Wordle. Phew indeed. 😱

How many times on how many channels will they re-screen the 1966 World Cup final? It was at Wembley chaps, and it was 60 years ago!
