this? <<
It's a Scottish Daily newspaper, based in Glasgow. One thing it is good
for is getting photos and stuff on Scottish actors, they seem to have a
love affair with Ewan McGregor and print photos of him whenever they get
the chance, but I'm not complaining about that. Heavens they have even
started to do articles about David Coulthard and him not a footballer.<EG>

Literate? We follow a series of movies and two TV shows. How does that
make us literate?
Highlander fans come from all walks of life and all levels of
education. And a percentage of HIGHLA-L members live in countries
other than the USA and for many of them English is a second language
(or third or fourth) and they deserve your understanding if their
knowledge and skill in English is not equal to yours.
So I encourage everyone here to look to the message in each post on
this list and not at the 'trappings' - misspellings, grammar, or
sentence structure. I wouldn't want people afraid to share in our
discussions because they were afraid the grammar or spelling police
will be after them.

Thanks for the heads up. I got a couple bargains.
There's lots of stuff, all right--apparently HL Store dumped oldish
inventory. I'd much rather bid & then deal w/ Closeout Store than hassle w/
HL Store. There are season tape sets, LOTS of swords, other catalog stuff.
Plus, of course, the usual stuff being auctioned by individuals.
Just go to http://pages.ebay.com/index.html & search for Highlander.
Oh--is there a way to do a search that excludes all the swords? (No more
sharps allowed--its a parole thing, you know how pesky THAT can be.)

Nina--> Thanks for the heads up. I got a couple bargains.
Yeah, thanks Judy, I just got a black scabbard open-mouthed Connor style
sword to go with my red scabbard dragon head Katana ("Official" <g> Duncan
sword) at a ridiculously low price......yahoooooooooooooooo :<)

I just tried that on the e-bay search and got nothing but swords. I got back at search that had 1025 items. Help!
Blessed Be,
