William Wanky Wallace

Many of my readers (AMToNW) will be familiar with the concept of the whinge. A reader from north of the border (A Mr McTrellis of North Wigtown), has complained loudly, repeatedly and some may say boringly about changes I made to this website.
It may be that the dark Scottish nights make it hard for him to read. Who cares?
But, in the spirit of tolerance and having nothing better to do. I publish here his suggestion for a poll. These are his words not mine.

"Simon has proposed we hold a multiple-question poll on the new design of my wonderful and informative blog. Please validate one of the following statements that you believe to be true - but only one box:

1. This is the most beautiful blog in the blogosphere.

2. Pretty cool, you may be a geek but you have style!

3. Above average - for NE Hampshire.

4. Is that the winter low light version?

5. Take it away! It sets off my SAD (seasonal affective disorder).

6. Man, it's so ugly it should win a prize!

It is as if Titian is back amongst us again.
I am awestruck. Gobsmacked. Overwhelmed.

Titian? I was thinking Andy Warhol.

Mark Gamon said...

Naaah. Jackson Pollock.

On t'other hand, Francis Bacon (now you've posted the Cameron picture)

It reminds me of a newspaper.

Since the newspaper industry is believed to be slowly dying out, I like the design being used on this blog.

Simon. You are losing 6-0.
Did you ever represent Scotland at soccer?

Great designers?
Yes, I could list the great Scottish artists without any problem.
McElangelo?
Salvador Dalgleish?
Not forgetting the great Irish painter Leonard O'Davinci.

Personally I attempt to remain indifferent to my ethicity. It was none of my conscious doing to be born onto this planet or species, let alone a specific geographical location. The English have given us cricket, they have also given us concentration camps. On the whole, (and my conclusion is based upon more than just those two examples) no better nor worse than any other artificial racial group.

iytknic - refusal to accept membership of an ethnic group.
