Google "lorem ipsum"...
Obviously its a 'work in progress...'
Well, its a mess. it has graphics that have just labels saying they are graphic, and lots of links with no text as well as appearing to have gobbledegook, which could be some odd format of a graphic. Not accessible certainly. Brian
Ah, thank you. I now remember coming across that, years ago, but forgettery comes with the passing years :-)
A joomla-in-progress.
A lot of Scottish websites seem to prefer .org rather than .org.uk or even .gov.uk where it would be appropriate.
If they want to be independentist they could not get a .scot.

You'd need to be paranoid to notice that. ;-)
Easier to understand than Doric.

Living in Aberdeenshire now, I find myself used to hearing Doric, and understanding it, or certainly getting the gist :-)
It's a wonderful dialect. What's not to like? ;-)

Indeed. I struggle to follow pure Doric, whether written or spoken, but when spoken with a mixture of Doric and English-with-a-Scots-accent, I cope :-)
I read a book recently, where the characters were speaking Scots with Doric, and I could easily read and understand it, but could also hear the words being spoken as I read them.
