February Update

The next meeting of the Bonnie Scotland Tent is on Wednesday 23rd February at 7:30pm in the Tartan Rose, where One Good Turn will be one of the movies shown.

We now have 76 people booked for the UK Sons of the Desert Convention in Paisley and are fast running out of hotel rooms! It looks like we may need to think about an overspill hotel.

Don't forget, there are daily rates for Bonnie Scotland members (see Janice) who want to come to the Convention.


One Good Turn
Stan and Ollie are victims of the great depression and are begging for food. A friendly old lady provides them with some sandwiches. Enjoying their meal they hear that the old lady will be thrown out of her house because she is robbed and cannot pay her mortgage. They don't know that the old lady is rehearsing a play. Stan and Ollie decide to repay the old lady by selling their car. During the auction a drunken man puts a wallet in Stan's pocket. Ollie accuses Stan of having robbed the old lady but when they return to the old lady's place they hear the truth. Stan takes revenge on Ollie in a violent way.

Memorable Quote:
Ollie to the old lady: "We haven't tasted food in three whole days".
Stan:" Yesterday, today and tomorrow".
