My highland holiday was not the same without a few haggis pudding suppers.
Maybe it is the fuel costs in the area--- 93.9 pence a litre for petrol and
diesel--no wonder the highlands seemed deserted.

Haggis and chips. Wonderful. Unobtainable in England.

Well it is an aquired taste, I remember my first try of one, Went to
Aviemore on a moutain warfare course in the army. (Read hurtling down
the slopes on your arse with skis in the air, and getting blathered
every night in the village)
I bought a "Haggis supper", to one bite of it and thought what horrid
greasy shite and threw it on the floor. This dog shot out from an
alleyway and wolfed it down. My thoughts at the time was I bet this
was a regular occurance.

Well seeing as the place is full of dogshit and old fertiliser sacks I
think a battered haggis on the floor would be a step up.
I've met quite a few of the Whyte-Setlar clan, and to be quite honest
they got sick of being pissed up at the end of the bar spouting about
the fucking English before I got sick of knocking their teeth out.
I dont have to hide behind a psuedonym, I live in Dewsbury Yorkshire.

You should know what a litter-trail looks like, your post looked like a
rubbish tip.
Haven't you learned how to post so that others can make sense of it,

Funny - they never mentioned you, and I am surprised they were spouting
about the *nglish. What were they saying?
I hope they didn't embarras you.

Pseudonym! What pseudonym? And its Settlar not Setlar.
Funnily enough I drive by quite near Dewsbury a couple of times a month on
business.
It might be nice to stop off for a pint.

Wrong on both counts, my dear!
You, on the other hand, seem to be one of those people who are
quite happy to dish it out, as in your post to my old friend Trudgill,
but squeal like a stuck pig if anyone does the same to you !

An Englander visited us last year and would not believe in 'Deep
Fried Mars Bars' until he had witnessed one. I took him to a chippy
in Thurso and as we stood in the lunchtime queue he still thought it
was a joke - until I actually ordered one for him. To be fair
though, I have to say that he ate every scrap of it.

It is my experience that Mr Stubbs fits into none of the categories
you mention. He happens to be a very efficient crofter and a jolly
decent type too.
As for littering - food is bio-degradeable and whilst it is
undesirable to drop food in the gutter, it is not officially litter.

One thing for sure - You'll get a better pint in Yorkshire than you
will in the beer drinkers desert called Sutherland :-)

Go to St. Andrews, and ask your way to the KFB. They'll deep fry any
chocolate item for you (for 40p I think) , and they have "Taz Pizza"
which involves a normal pizza, cooked with chocolate "taz devils"
(the 10p ones).
Truly unique experience.
Graeme.

I'll second that. I tend to drink the stuff in bottles as the keg article
is a refined sort of poison.
The local near Mr. Trudgill's house served me with one of the best
pints that I have drunk in a long time, and although it goes against
the grain I would have to say that if it was an average example then
Yorkshire beer isn't half bad.

Went to the Marine Hotel for the Millenium Grand Match. One of the best

Splendid! Its so heartening to hear how Scottish cuisine continues to match
the best in Europe.
I can still remember when deep fried pizza was still almost unheard of
outside of a very exclusive clientele and now it has evolved and its true
worth is beginning to be appreciated the world over.
Bravo!

Well Gerald, having sussed the local hosteleries since our visit, I
can catagorically say without fear of contradiction that the pub we
had a jar in was fairly mediochre, and there's much better across and
down the road.
See you on your way back up north like, and if Mr W-S would like to
join me for a pint or so he's more than welcome, just drop me a line
when he's passing and I'll show him one or two decent watering holes.

Well the only decent pint I ever had north 'o' border was in Aberdeen
at a place called "My fathers moustache". John Smiths on draught, good
food and sevice, well tidy and friendly barmaids, what more can you
ask.
I'm told this place is supposed to be a "ginger joint" but compared to
the "Robbie Burns" down near the station with its sticky tartan
carpets, stroppy bar staff, vile beer, Jamsie Cotter clientel, and
rough OLD (with a capital O) slappers tapping half a lager off anyone
who'd buy them one, I'll drink with the shirt lifters any day of the
week.

Last time I was in there it was all pateurised nitro-keg stuff. No
cask matured 'Real ales' at all.
Do they have hand or electric pumped beers now?

The Central Hotel in Thurso (Top Joe's Bar) always has two real ales
on through winter and three in summer. Last week I thoroughly
enjoyed a Charles Wells "Eagle" IPA. There's simply *NO* comparison
between a good ale and a Tennents nitro-keg.

though it was crap. However there is a chip shop at Achnmelvich, on the
Shore Caravan Site which is now the choice of tourists and locals, but I'm
biased because until yesterday I worked there (it's getting to the end of
the season up there.)
