Last weekend I attended the 623rd Annual Hound Tor Highland Games of Upper Tindalos. Plenty of ale, headcheese sandwiches and haggis for all. The highlight was a rare performance by "Barney" Scotland's own Barney Fife & Drum Corps, featuring the Wolverhampton Twins, Jimmy and Timmy. Jimmy (left) wants to play jazz, and Timmy has an inner ear infection. Blimey, what an odd lot!

Faith, is it Fife I been hearin' comin' down the lane? Aye, 'tis the old bumbler himself, can't carry a tune in a milk pail. And I think I've been hearin' Otis' ungodly corn-whiskey tootin' as well, with a goodly measure of Aunt Bea's mornin' thunder thrown in to boot! Aiiieeeee!
Aye, lad. I enjoyed the games as well, but the headcheese lay heavy on me stomach. Made me wind blow quite a gale.
Aye, lads an' lassies! I'll be goin' forth with a fifth on the Fourth at the Firth o' Forth with Fife! Rah-ooo! Kin ye no' say that three times fastly, for surely I kinna!
Thank you, Longshanks! He's here through Sunday, ladies and gentleman. Don't forget to tip your barmaids (over).
