***** Glesga Poet Barred

Post by Davie » Sun Apr 08, 2007 10:32 pm

Ah hid postit a link tae Tom Leonard’s “Six Glasgow poems” seein’ the first wan had a wee Easter theme. “The Good Thief”
However, the site wuz unacceptable tae the high hiedyins oan TS.
This wisnae due tae oany blasphemy mind ye, but the use o’ the f word.
We urr talking Tom Leonard here!
He will be delighted when he hears of this, so will everybody else in the toon.


So whitever yeese dae, don’t look at oany o’ his ither stuff.

Hi Davie,

When TalkingScot was first created, a set of rules was established of which the "f" word is banned from this board. It doesn't make a difference how its used, its banned period. End of Story! Now lets move on to a different subject and have a nice day...

Regards
Marilyn
