Actually, vanessa, Lidl's food store is German! My surname, Liddell, comes from the Liddel water, Liddesdale,in the Scottish borders! I'm no fan of the haggis and tartan brigade - after all, tartan, while existing from at least the twelfth century, was re-invented by Albert, German husband of German Queen Victoria, when they bought a perfectly respectable Scots baronial house and ruined it by creating the monstrosity called Balmoral! As for Scots history, well, you have things a wee bit skewed. The Roman province of Britannia never stretched to what is now Scotland - indeed, "Great" Britain is only "Great" to distinguish it from "Lesser" Britain - Brittany, or Breton, in what is now France! I have a diploma in Scots history from Stirling University ( gained through correspondence and summer schools ), my speciality being early and medieval history up until the act of Union in 1707. My nation's past has always fascinated me - ever since I started English at secondary school and realised just what a pigs ear Shakespeare made of our king, Macbeth, and his actually very prosperous and peaceful reign. Ever since then, I've been immersed in my country's language and culture - and, more recently, politics. -----Original Message----- From: vanessa - Email Address: qwerTÌty1234567a@xxxxxxxxx Sent On: 13/08/2012 12:21 Sent To: GUIDE CHAT - Email Address: guide.chat@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [guide.chat] jim I listened to it live, it was not telling us what was happening, there was no description of what was going on at the time of it being live and britain long time ago there was no england, ireland, scotland or wales, we were just one land and your surname is anglo saxon, related to lidl's food store, moved to scotland from northumberland, cumberland and britania was ruled by a woman, her name sounds like britanic and sumerians are older than egyptians and stonehenge was moved from wales to england, preseli in wales is pres means money, prestatyn means money in hand, aber is the mouth leading to the sea, bedd is grave, llan is church, all our places mean something, we are one country that was split by greed, the ave maria song sung with both pop and opera says it all in the verse, war is always the choice of the chosen who do not have to fight, the chosen as in rulers and politicians, peace be unto you, let everyone walk all lands together as brother and sister free as the birds that fly, let there be no war, let there be freedom and choice and let us all know right from wrong and help one another, maybe not for the olympics, maybe for a program of your liking like doctor who, science fiction or fact, whatever the program it should be audio description, we want to have a description of what is happening, like the boy is walking towards his mother, it has started to snow, it is raining they are pulling up there umbrellas, without this audio description we do not know, hope you will help in which ever program you watch that if it is not audio description you will contact them, as then they will do something about it, only mine so far is there about audio description, the other is numerous complaints about gary lineka's comments live on the olympics, hope you like this debate, i am putting up my shield, help. vanessa. -----Original Message----- From: James Liddell - Email Address: james.liddell2@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent On: 13/08/2012 11:29 Sent To: vanessa, GUIDE CHAT - Email Address: qwerty1234üa567a@xxxxxxxxÔ¨m, guide.chat@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [guide.chat] In Reply To: [guide.chat] b b c complaints telephone number for no audio description Vanessa; The Olympics opening ceremony was on Freeview Red Button as it was broadcast - live. Not that that interested me much. It was simply British propagandising at it's most sycophantic. I'm not British. I'm not proud of Britain. I'm Scots - and proud of it! -----Original Message----- From: vanessa - Email Address: qwerty1234üa567a@xxxxxxxxx Sent On: 13/08/2012 11:23 Sent To: GUIDE CHAT - Email Address: guide.chat@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [guide.chat] b b c complaints telephone number for no audio description About time we change the world we live in to make it easier on the next generation, fed up of not knowing what they are doing, they say things oh look at that, put this in here, what is it that they are putting there and what is there.
