Ah'm no drunk, Hic!

Ah'm no drunk, Hic!

Lead kindly torch, 
amid the encircling gloom. 
Old Homers jist left the booser, 
but he canny find his room. 

The nicht is dark an’ fuzzy, 
an’ old homers lost his bike. 
An’ he canny ride wi’ oot it, 
an his kilts too bleedin tight. 

You take the wide waist, i"ll take the thin waist and i"ll be in Scotland afore ye.

Further accusations are now coming to light that a certain member has purchased a kilt which is several sizes to large to allow for expansion on tour. yes expansion on a cycling tour, i ask you gentlemen which is the most finable offence, a kilt slightly too small or one that is several sizes to large. what sort of atheletes are we???,

Kilts that fit

Gentlemen and assassins and bikers of the night
I call upon this evening in a hope of shedding some light
I cani go into detail, or finger unfounded fools
But there are some ere amongst us who are no playing to the rules
We need to round the low life by our local CID
To find those hiring tartan with waist size far tooo small to see!!
you thank its big and clever, but the time will shortly tell
That moontain biking Arron will surly turn to hell!
So use this evenings e-mail to worn of times ahead
that wearing Kilts too small for yee, thus fines yeill surly dread.

Watch ooot!!
