Musings from the Merse

BEIRUT IN THE BORDERS


We have our moments of sectarianism in Scotland-Celtic and Rangers-SNP and the Sassenachs-and we know all about in Norn Iron but it is sad Lebanon which takes the biscuit. The Parking sign says (in Arabic) Maronites Only and I suspect if you ignore that it won't be a clamp to worry about but a few pounds of Semtex up your exhaust to send you on your way-but I suppose, to look on the bright side, you may become entitled to a disabled parking space next time around. If you are spared, of course.


Lessons for the Merse?I have never enquired about the religo/ethnic background of the Chirnside Medical Practice GPs but I suspect they are not Shia.So lets leave that one alone.More productively Hutton Think Tank are toying with an idea of how to facilitate parking for disadvantaged people on (the future) Fishwick Bypass given the Traffic congestion and the difficulty of parking at Fishwick itself.
One suggestion is for a slot reserved for this category of unfortunate motorist-in Gaelic and English:

'ENGLISH ONLY'

I have contacted you as requested
 
Oooh I'm intrigued now
 
Ask Meaghan what is going on. My lips are sealed and my fingers frozen-too far from the WBS
 
Hey! I'm intrigued too.

Wait, hold on. No...

I'm over it.
