Make Borders History

Seems a bit harsh. Okay the Scottish books are in a "local interest" section and they try to sell the Daily Telegraph, but Borders is dead handy to waste 20 minutes waiting for the train.

Hmm

Scottish Borders nervously policed

Believe it or not but the borders bookshop in glasgow had police stationed outside during the tour.

Do they know something we don't?

Has anyone got any pictures of the borders police lurking outside?

pig shit thick

Hmm Again

There's a couple of incorrectly captioned photos above:

- The boarded-up shop is British Airways, not Aerospace. BA do lots of the deportation flights.

- The pyramidal brick "Serco" building is actually the Ministry of Defence's Kentigern House, home to numerous evil scumbags.
