Notre Dame cathedral

[Cal Weldon]

This is my favourite Charles

Somehow my impression of bagpipes just changed.

Yes very cool that we get musical connections in this thread about a building.

It's been brought up before. Since you are an architect, this should be a related topic.

This is my favourite Charles - don't ask me why!

I see I am preaching to the perverted! 🙂

Is it that Scottish girl in black leather?

For your eyes only Charles! 😉

I noticed a sound coming from one of the sleeve of my paints.

Do you mean one of the legs of your trousers?
If so, you should wear a kilt and let yer wind gan free!

 

[Evenharmonics]

When Scots advise you about kilt, you listen.

A necessity for battered mars bars ?

 

[Charles Darwin]

When will there be an end to domestic violence against chocolate based snacks?

 

[Galu]

Of no nutritional value and containing high levels of anti-nutrients such as sugar, glucose syrup and heated vegetable fat, a deep fried Mars bar is a yummy stereotype of the Scottish diet!

Haggis

 

[Charles Darwin]

I love haggis!

I love haggis!

Sadly, being from south of the border, you may only have tasted the farmed variety of haggis.

The good news up here is that the annual cull of wild Haggii Scoticus Vulgaris was very successful due to the warm temperatures at the beginning of the year.

During an extreme winter, the haggs and their hagglets seek shelter in their burrows under the snow where their thick, subcutaneous fat layer keeps them warm.

In such extreme winter conditions, it is impossible to drive the wild haggii towards the strategically placed capture nets, leading to disappointment at Burns Suppers and the sad sight of burly, kilted Scotsmen (and women!) weeping into their Whyte & MacKays!

 

[Charles Darwin]

I only eat sustainable, line-caught haggis imported from bonny Scotland.

Also I always stand to attention when I hear the Anthem of the kilted Yaksmen!

Back on topic:

Earlier I joked that, after the 3D modelling, Airfix will bring out a model of Notre Dame within five years.

However, if you can't wait that long . . .

Anthem of the kilted Yaksmen

You need to watch this version to get a proper view of the sand blowing up their kilts!

I suppose you think I have bats in the belfry! 😛

Those MacKays must be an extra-hard subspecies!
