I must protest most strongly that I do, James. And does your mother sew? [Well
get her to stitch this!]

There is predominance of men called James in Glasgow and it is customary to
address an unknown man as Jimmy. As in the phrase "See you Jimmie" which
translates roughly "May I have your attention?"

No Charge. :)

That's good, though I s'pose I could let you have one of the coins from 
the pot you buried....But not until I get there. ;-)

As long as I find the right straw with the flag attached to it, it

Just had a thought. <shock> If you leave the field from a different direction
than you entered then you might end up here. I buried the pot from here. 
But then you might end up anywhere.

So I guess we'll have to find an older recording. :-)

I think I have an audio-only recording from a few years ago.
