The Scottish Government has just spent £100,000 apparently to come up with a new slogan for Scotland to replace "The best small country in the world". The new slogan is to be "Welcome to Scotland" with the Gaelic translation of "Failte gu Alba" as you can see from the picture in the BBC article.
100K pah, I could have done it for a fraction of that figure. Oh, I already did.
See the comment dated 9:11pm 27 Aug 2006.
The comment was obviously far too ahead of its time and didn't take full account of inflation either.

I have no idea what to say. You were right on the money and could have easily advised the Government and saved them the trouble of paying the "experts".
I really can't laugh because it's really sad.
