    If I didn't "yak" here, I would be taking my afternoon nap.

    Anyway, I don't have my camera with me so you can't see any pics of 'Juicy Lucy':

    No, it's Del I feel sorry for, having to put up with you doing morning 'star jumps' on the bed, like an Italian Mr Motivator (Sr Motivatori?) with Falco's "Rock Me Amadeus" playing

    "Marco, for God's sake knock it on the head! Go downstairs and put the kettle on!"

    "No cuppa for us ma wee hen, you know that's what the great unwashed drink, it's poncey coffee for us, with some freshly made croissants!"

    "I haven't time for any of that, just a brew and some cornflakes please. I need to get to the school."

    "We'll walk to the school together, we could power-walk it."

    "If we must, but don't even think about wearing that towelling headband and matching leg warmers again, the pupils are still laughing about it"

    "It's a deal, and as they say in the old country, stop yer greetin' an git doonstairs the noo"


    I bet you're now searching the house for hidden microphones, aren't you

    A wee burdy told me Marco WAS Rab C. Nesbitt, but he changed his name and moved to Wales to escape his adoring fans

    Could be true but disappointingly he doesn't wear the bandage or the string vest anymore.
