Token Scot Day

who's on their way from misery to happiness today?
"And I would cast 500 votes
and I would cast 500 more...

In the spirit of new Westminster band David Cameron and the Flying Visits, Opinionated Vicar brings you Token Scot Day, a once in a century chance to make Scottish people feel like they belong to the rest of the UK by playing the Proclaimers and cracking jokes about haggis. Normal service resumes tomorrow.

As a nod to the fact that I'm ethnically 1/8 Scottish, you get 2 Scots for the price of 1 in the video.

(For a brief moment, I did moot the idea of playing 'Lets Get Married' by the Proclaimers on our wedding day. It was only a brief moment.)
