Toss l'Ecosse!

Je vais aller en Ecosse, ce matin:
Where the weather is boring...
... and the locals are rodents.

The fishy government of Scotland under First Minister Salmon put forward to voters proposed changes to the school curriculum for 6-12 year olds, to add 3 hours of English lessons per week. If passed, the change would mean a 30% increase of time spent in schools for the youngsters, adding English to the currently taught classes in Tribal Lingo, Survival, Tribal History, Food & Feed and Adding & Subtracting.

The government's plan met fierce opposition from parents, who insisted that their offspring have to spend already 11 hours a week away from caves, where they are needed for bat control, wall drawings and work on the potato patches. Eighty-four percent of the electorate voted against the change.
