"Oh! They call him Mark the Kramer,

From a strong and noble clan,

He's sworn to defend our cattle,

From the filthy Englishman!

With a face full of red whiskers,

And an axe in his strong hand,

To strike dead the filthy English,

The pride of his fathers’ land!"

My first and last attempt at a one night stand was raided by the police	She dumped me when she found out I'd been faking my Scottish accent	Sassenach	Common Glasgow, Edinburgh and Scottish colloquial terms and words
It wasn't until later, when I was washing the blood off my hands, I even knew they were dead	March 28, 2012	Battle of Flodden	No more sheepless nights

All the while he was talking she was thinking what his whiskers would feel like on the back of her neck	Grog	March 30, 2012	broken heart syndrome
