There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.

Four stage strategy from Yes, Minister:
Stage one we say nothing is going to happen.
Stage two, we say something may be about to happen, but we should do nothing about it.
Stage three, we say that maybe we should do something about it, but there's nothing we can do.
Stage four, we say maybe there was something we could have done, but it's too late now.

Silly, Scotland is a made-up fairytale land filled with dragons and giants and Glaswegians and other such fantastical creatures.I thought this thread was talking about Scotland?

The idea of "North of Newcastle" is one of these nonsensical physical concepts, like "before the Big Bang" or "inside a Black Hole".
