what's wrong with it ? it's built on a hill
as are most castles, it makes the easier to defend. I imagine if you built it on the flat, the raiders would just flatten the thing then it wouldn't be here for you to visit.
oh really ? |

| May be the 4th city, but deffinately the best - after all, William Wallace was educated here in Dundee...(you know the bit in braveheart where he disappears and returns again - most of that time he was in Dundee with his uncle argyle!!) |

where he started his education is fairly ambiguous, but most sources say his education was at least finished in Dundee at the dundee High School (same place, different building) (same place KT tunstall was educated lol)
Its been a school since the 12th C |

So, Dave; if a tree falls in a forest and nobody is around, doest it make a sound? ;-)
It matters not if there is no one around my young padawan...or whatever.
See (if you're talking about a forest on earth certainly) sound is ONLY exists audibly (other than a wave) due to the presence of obstacles and more to the point, particles, in the air. Sound can barely even travel without particles of air and vapour and dust etc - thats the only reason we hear each other.
And since the forrest is full of particles for the sound to reverberate (sound) with, then yes, it does make a sound -
when your boiler clicks on at home whilst your at work, does it fail make a sound just because you are not there?
hehehehehe
luv ya merih - come see my legs soon ok? Oh I mean me...
xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
My boiler can't click itself but a tree can fall. :-P But that's not the point, is it? haha
Luv your sexy legs ahem you too! ;-) |
