Soundo I am sure everyone in planet Britain will tell you that Scots and their money are not easily parted. I barely escaped the credit crunch by hiding my gold where no one would ever find it. Unfortunately I hid it so well I cant find it myself. Could anyone lend me a tenner to feed the kids, as the looks they are giving me are piteous to behold.

Jocky, you sly dog, we all know your wife has bags full of money; Gracious, an important job and the bingo winnings...Did you look under the mattress cover?

Can you scratch up a couple of chickens instead?
If not, putting already dead ones in the oven and eating the flesh to the glory of some entity or other might work.
Especially with stuffing.

As usual Atheist I am grateful for your sage advice
There is however an insurmountable problem, I haven't got a shilling for the meter. Do you think a couple of tins of sardines, on toast, the toaster is still working, would suffice? I know some Deities have problems with pork and poultry but surely a couple of silver fishes, liberally covered in tomato sauce would suffice. This idea of penitence is getting to be a real pain in the but.

I hear the American God accepts Peanut butter and jelly sandwiches in lieu of cash; except on Easter and Thanksgiving, which requires the sacrafice of some fowl or cloved foot creature

Plural, Haggii my friend, Haggii. It is an interesting proposition though, killing a couple of mythological creatures to appease a mythological God. If I ever have to go hunting in the wildlands of Kelvin Grove the bankers will have cause to regret it, or my name is not Jocky.

Ahh, do they still make MacConnachies Herrings in Tomato Sauce?
They were divine, so they'd be good and you don't even need a toaster!
