Wink The Passing of an ex-pat Scottish nationalist in Vancouver

No, Gordon, I'm not talking about you.

In today's paper there was mention in the obituaries column of the passing in Vancouver of a Mr Vernon, who acheived a certain notoriety in 1950 by stealing (Sorry, recovering) the Stone of Scone from Westminster Abbey in a student prank, and returning it to Scotland. Having received many accolades ( ) from the scots and disapproval ( ) from the English establishment, he eventually found reason to emigrate to Canada.

Perhaps Gordon has comitted a similar such outrage on the sassenachs and needs to quit bonny Scotland quicksmart? Git oot now, man!
