Still falling
Breathless and on again
Inside todayInside me todayAround broken in twoTil your eyes share into dustLike two strangers turning into dustTil my hand shook with the weight of fearI could possibly be fadingOr have something more to gainI could feel myself growing colderI could feel myself under your fateUnder your fateIt was you, breathless and tornI could feel my eyes turning into dustInto strangers, turning into dustTurning into dustTurning into dust

Its Hogmanay!!!
So Happy Ne'erday when it comes...
(Don't really see the point to New Year Celebrations - never really been all that comfortable with the logic of it even as a very young child - always seems maudlin & a feeble excuse to get drunk)
But still - I'll not spoil what is for some is a fab excuse for a big party / small family gathering or whatever life brings you...
Glasgow Hogmanay 2007/8 (Runrig just after 'the bells')
Edinburgh Hogmanay 2007/8 (Fireworks across city)
Some Fab Hogmanay TV from my Childhood...
(for Salvationists - the last 30/40seconds are very funny)
Though, finally I offer up, right now, prayers for those who want or need Gods Comfort & Grace, in whatever situation or 'celebration' you find yourself the Holy Spirit & God's blanket of love will surround you & warm you. You are never alone - God's there walking beside you & me
Merry Christmas!! (Early I Know)
:-o
16mins long but worth the watching - keep with it!
Not as description says - it about sooo much more than "free parking!!"
My opinion? it shows how much a few words can carry so much power!!
In this film, its for the good but unfortunately so can a few bad/hurtful words.
So always, choose your words carefully..
Remember, a smile takes less effort than a frown...
& a good word spoken is easier than a bad word :)
"We Are Coming..."
July 6th - 9PM
This is a trailer for (in case you hadn't worked it out):
New Interpretation of fab 1980's series "V".. Hope they don't mess it up!!- From the trailer it looks tentively promising..
1st episodes of original series were hard hitting (for primetime TV).. mirroring how easily something like Germany of the 1930's could still (and since has- sadly more than once) happen including genocide & in particular Holocoust.. Hopefully it will do same.. With 21st Century Twist
Coming to U.S. 2009-10 schedule - hopefully U.K. will see it too (quickly PLEASE!)
Just an insight into Burns' Words, Hogmanay & Scotland :May the best ye hae ivver seen be the warst ye'll ivver see.
May the moose ne'er lea' yer girnal wi a tear-drap in its ee.
May ye aye keep hail an hertie till ye'r auld eneuch tae dee.
May ye aye juist be sae happie as A wuss ye aye tae be.The above, in translation, reads:
May the best you have ever seen be the worst you will ever see.
May the mouse never leave your grain store with a tear drop in its eye.
May you always stay hale and hearty until you are old enough to die.
May you still be as happy as I always wish you to be.Here's to all those that I love
Here's to all those that love me.
And here's to all those that love those that I love,
And all those that love those that love me.
(You have to think about that one!)I drink to the health of another,
And the other I drink to is he -
In the hope that he drinks to another,
And the other he drinks to is me!Here's to them that like us -
Them that think us swell -
And here's tae them that hate us -
Let's pray for them as well!Here's to the heath, the hill and the heather,
The bonnet, the plaid, the kilt and the feather!Here's to the heroes that Scotland can boast,
May their names never dee -
That's the Heilan' Man's Toast!Here's tae us -
Wha's like us -
Damn few -
And they're a' deid -
Mairs the pity!May the hill rise behind you,
And may the mountain be always over the crest;
And may the God that you believe in
Hold you in the palm of his hand.Or alternatively:
May the road rise to meet you,
May the wind be always at your back,
The sun shine warm upon your face,
The rain fall soft upon your fields.Lang may yer lum reek! (Long may your chimney smoke!)
Wi' ither folks coal! (With other people's coal!)
(The second line is said to have originated in Edinburgh!)May we be happy - and our enemies know it!
A guid New Year and mony may ye see.
May ye ne'er want a frien' or a dram to gie him.
When we're gaun up the hill of fortune, may we ne'er meet a frien' comin' doun!
