The Oldest Face in Scotchland

Scienticians recently unearthed what is described as The Oldest Face in Scotchland.

The 5000-year-old stone carving was found in Orkney, which is that bunch of islands up at the top of Scotchland. Somebody must have had really sharp eyes to spot it: it's fooking tiny.

It went on display in Embra Castle and loads of people paid a fortune to come and see it. They could have saved themselves the trouble - you can see Ming Campbell at his Fife constituency any time you like (except when he's fiddling his expenses in London). He's richt auld. Heh.

Anyway, it's gone on tour with Rod Stewart or something. More details here.

It looks as though you could play Naughts and Crosses (Tic Tac Toe for any Merkans) on her face. The Orkney Venus, not....well ok, maybe both.

Agree with Laurie...
Also, she either has the most itty bitty titties I've ever seen, or she was a thalidomide baby with stubby arms.

That bottom thing is supposed to have a face?? *squints*

Hey!! You're three for three! What's on tap for #4??? WOOT!

Laurie - I'm guessing it's a chess piece. A queen, obv.

Sew - Itty bitty titties, I'll use that!

Lesley - What, I have to do more? Feck. *starts blogging*

Nice post! GA is also my biggest earning. However, it’s not a much.
