Sorry that’s very unfair, but its just a wee bit of fun payback for the all too many “tartan justification lectures” that I have suffered over the years!

HEY!
I'm proud of my family crest with the three brass balls!

I am very sure that you are. But sometimes and with the greatest of respect, it is all balls to me!
