This jist in(for me onywye):

"Mohsni is a devout Muslim. At Rangers, a room is set aside at both Murray Park (Rangers' training complex) and Ibrox Stadium to enable him to pray at the required times throughout the day. He is also permitted to arrive at a later time for training on Fridays to allow him to attend his mosque."

The boy was a wounded animal so it was unwise of Erwin to shove him but it did not look malicious. The boy couldnae handle it and his response was immature and malicious.

And now he is claiming that it was his Mum that made him do it !

I guess there always have been bad guys , interested only in their own grab for wealth and power , in key positions , in all societies. Only...there are far more of them today.

Of the Human Rights issue , let's not forget that our own Establishment and Arms Industry are involved in selling weapons to countries with equally poor Human Rights conditions as Quatar.

Anything for a buck , eh?

There's a face I'd like to punch - Mike Ashley.

Face for today(see article in The National by the wonderful , marvellous 'Wee Ginger Dug'(Paul Kavanagh).

Yup manc , fresh is probably best but being on the lazy side I mostly buy mine in a jar and sprinkle on soups , stews and paella...turmeric is also what gives paella that lovely vibrant yellow colour.

Got a Costa coffee machine for £39.99 , an offer I couldnae refuse. Will never go back to instant.

Thanks guys , even tho' aff the pizzen for 5 days the after-effects take weeks , months even. I hope that my energy levels will improve in a couple of weeks. Sittin' aboot deein' nuthin' the day...at least it's been in the Sun.

2 to 4 cups of coffee per day are supposed to keep Alzheimer's at bay. Scientifically proven allegedly.

Turmeric also.

Yup! The boy's got the streech o' it.

Wonder if that is worth a watch.

Watched episode one , Tyrant and enjoyed it , probably more accurate historically than Braveheart but I'm nae really qualified to say that.

Outlander

That's two abstemious players in our ranks , at least... and I hivnae hid a drink for a year.

Alcohol is sooooo yesterday. 

The torture never stops !

'Outlander'(Netflix and/or Show Box).

The Outlander series is set in Scotland in 1743 and it explores among other things the relationships and attitudes of British occupying military forces toward the local population. The picture painted is often one of British repression and brutality borne of visceral contempt for Scots.

Prime Minister David Cameron met with Sony Pictures representatives 2 1/2 months before indyref to discuss the impending release in Britain of the Outlander series, according to WIKILEAKS. The series premier broadcast was inexplicably delayed here until after the referendum.

Seen this een? Pity Wayne Lytle is such a prog rock fan , a metal or hard rock animation would be most excellent.

One of these seasons I don't want to end and one of these teams we will always remember. We do lust after more goals  but they are not necessarily a sign of quality...Scottish goalies are better than they used to be.

Aff the chemo - 'Whoop!'.

Possibility of a week in Stockholm later this year - August/September) , accommodation free !

Love the place , one of those where I feel 'at home' and could easily bide there.

Kinlochrannoch first tho'...still reeling fae after effects of anti-cancer drugs. Try to avoid !

Certainly do , hilton... hivnae been in a Starbucks or Cafe Nero for months. Compared to yesterday there are many good coffee shops to choose from in the centre.

what is a flat white?

If you don't like your cappuccino or latte too milky , as I don't , then ask for a flat white , G_G.

Occasionally I go for the Americano , without the milk.

I have coffee every Saturday morning wi' a half-dizzen ither wrinkles and we all like our coffee in different flavours and strengths - cappuccinos , Americanos , espressos , flat whites ,  lattes. Some of them even like hot chocolate - now that is poovery ! 

It is not the different origin of the coffee bean we are talking here , ergo flavour(like whisky , beer or wine ) , it's the strength of the cup of coffee and the ratio of h2o to milk and preparation thereof.

'Vive la difference' but there are those who like to keep it simple by asking for 'black' or 'white'. This will ellicit further interrogation from your 'barrista'(like a barman , only in a coffee shop) because dedicated coffee shops offer more complexity or choice , if you will.
