Funny stuff.

*Moet nie jou taal, is dit baie verwarrend.



Ya, eleven official languages sucks blou balle.

Haha!  On a hot day (rare in the UK, but they happen) I still stay it's amashosho

Eish. My zulu is rusty dear. Haven't studied it since primary school. Don't make me get the dictionary out! ;(

Xhosa not Zulu And it means hot lmao! I thought the meaning was implicit with the statement

I did mention 11 official languages right? lol....sheesh. *sniffs and cries*

ag, tula baba, tula.  


(yups, Tswana too there )

I love it when people mix up their languages. Especially when they're speaking. It's fun. My latino friends here do it all the time they'll be rolling around in one language and then they come to a thought that is easier to express in the other so they switch.

Like you can be rattling on in English about some spoiled girl and stuff she is complaining about and then roll your eyes and say "pobre cita". Love it when they do that

I must be a special kind of silly because I mess up English in an entirely weird way. I might say it's been a 'tong lime' when I mean to say 'long time' and several other examples I can't think of right now.
[In case anyone missed it, the first letters of both words are switched]

ahh, so you are a student of the Reverend Spooner?

I laughed until my sides hurt when my mum's ex hubby got her calling her kitten the "cooking fat" and she never realised what she was saying until much later

I don't want to start saying those examples that guy was a coo-coo

What a brilliant idea!  Charge the victims of a crime for being stupid enough to have been robbed in the first place!  Maybe Galloway isn't so bad after all

On a sidenote, none of them seems to be abled to spell C-a-z-a-u-r-e, even though they have a screenshot presented there where they could copy it from...

lmao! Saying it in my head, the way they have spelled it comes out sounding Australian: Caz a roo

What town is Calum in? I think that town needs revolting. 

Well, the most troubled by that closure are english, various gambits etc. so I see it as a good thing

And more:

You know this sounds vaguely familiar to a novel imagined, i thought a good name for it would be Animal Farm.  Odd i know but still.  The jist of the story being that certain individuals decided to use an ideology to stir the others up into a frenzy to start a new form of governance.  And yet all they managed to achieve was to put the same people in charge again only under the guise of freedom for all.

You speak so brazenly about the freedoms of towns and yet you cannot tell us what you feel you are being persecuted by.  So tell me right now what it is you need freedom from because i can so easily bring it up to the council and propose it is put in our law books as a right of our citizens.

Perhaps you would like to tell the people of this great county instead how your freedom works in practice.  When the town of Kirkcudbright was attacked by rebels and i sent you a personal missive requesting your help.  Did JO stand up for the freedoms of the people of Kirkcudbright to rule themselves and choose their own leaders?  No, you refused aid but kept insisting you would pay the damages of your compatriots.  I say compatriots because Launcelot seems to be a very close ally of yours, recently having an army in Whithorn for the town and speaking in the English commons with the supposed authority of the town of Whithorn.  So perhaps you would like to correct me but it seems to me this criminal is your ally and when asked to help against him in the name of freedom that you hold so dear, you refused.

What then of the freedom of the county to defend itself, the people you bring to form your new nation in Whithorn, known career criminals some of them who have proven ill intent to the rest of the county of Galloway.  The county reacts by imposing a border control, to prevent these people of disrepute from destroying the freedoms of the people of this great county, and what do i receive from you.  Is it support for this defence of our freedoms?  No, yours words, "Wrong Move".

Julius you speak a big game of freedom for the towns and decentralisation.  And yet you have proven to me on two occasions that your belief of freedom is only when it suits you.  When Kirkcudbright called for help you sent none, when Galloway defends itself you scorn our actions.  One has to wonder Julius if this decentralisation of yours is merely a ploy to gain more power, or perhaps another ego trip to satisfy your need to have your name stamped across the halls of this land.

So lets look a little into your plan.  You want every town to send 4 members to the CC on the authority of the Mayor?  Effectively creating 4 seperate factions working for 4 seperate goals.  Each town would only need to look out for itself because that would be the new system you outline, were we to work together we would just have what we have now, a unified council which provides for all of Galloway.  So why would collapsing power to the mayors be good?  Well Whithorn has an army, i guess without a council and only your town having an army that would be rather beneficial.

But i digress, so weve established your claims for freedom are as and when you see fit.  What of this new border control, to protect Galloway from undesirables.  Launcelot and Gambits lost boys are your guests in Whithorn are they not, men who look to topple our rightful sovereignty.  And you also go and invite the English WoS to your new kingdom, criminals so that when the English realised what was happening they sank their ship.  So you have here a town which seems to be rallying every undesirable you can get a hold off, people that neither the CA nor England want.  And you believe you will bring Justice and Freedom to Galloway?

Julius i knew you when you fought on the fields of Muirkirk with Alistair.  I remember then thinking while you had your fault you were fighting for a freedom.  Now i see you gathering all the misfits you can, and i think, this is how Fury started.  What new evil will you bring to this land in the name of your freedom.

Calum pauses for a second before continueing.

Your ideals of freedom only equate to more power in your hands and less accountability.  That is not what i call freedom.

Whats the point of attacking Galloway? They are pretty much the weakest county in all English speaking realms. It's like kicking a puppy.

Shame to see English being invited there. Julius should know better. Those people will soon turn Whithorn into a mini-England...

TBH, I don't find what Calum is writing logical when first reading through it all, the threat needs to be able to be backed up as well can't just go around throwing out edicts without being able to back it up either that's why the comments, they're not intimidated, it's a cycle and they know it, and I see it. It is Anto, a damn shame too. I don't know JO at all or what the deal is there but there has been A LOT of english coming in (minus WoS because from what I've been reading their sick of England's shit too) and not just visiting not to mention Scotland having their own going thru there robbing their own etc. Obviously Galloway isn't organized enough to back up what Calum's saying over there, not that I don't think hanging a few folks isn't smart, it'd help eventually but having a few other things in place at the same time wouldn't hurt and you wouldn't be seeing their smartass reply posts...well, probably, but it wouldn't last long   (and Brennos called me a troll!  )

Here's what I think should happen:

Get enough recruits/forces throughout ALL of Scotland (like minded folks working together because you all have a common goal and have always had one it seems with all this garbage continually coming in), do a back and forth sweep with some armies and kill their charry's a few good times, keep hanging them too as traitors etc. Those Scottish robbing and getting their own, need to stop or take it to England. Those who are Scottish but act like English, run their asses out! You have a Scotland again <--only reason I say this is because it worked in Ireland. All the counties may work or be run a bit differently than the rest but when it comes down to it, and because we all respect each other, it works out great. I understand where Anto's coming from, if it weren't for him and a few others our Ireland wouldn't be as awesome as it is now.

Hoping this post makes sense, I've yet to finish my coffee this morning and was up late last night...did some awful rambling last night too >.< ugh

afaik, the only time Scotland banded together was because of NNGO uniting them. If Scotland were to try do it themselves they'd probably have an English clone army coming to attack them aswell as opposition from Scotland itself (it's Scotland afterall)
