blan89 159 Posted September 7, 2011 Report Share Posted September 7, 2011 i remember seeing a documentary about world war 2,the Americans were flying over some polynesian islands (I think) to attack the japs,years later they discovered these poly's had been worshiping these planes ever since,they'd build effigies of them and burn them every year in hopes it would help their crops.

Lab 10,979 Posted September 7, 2011 Report Share Posted September 7, 2011 Undisputed, I can confirm some of this behaviour.....as I was born in that village and lived there for 19 years before I managed to escape one night under darkness...... However I would say, you may be brave enough to slag off the Larky men, but would you do it face to face? They are a wild wild bunch! I think they would welcome you with open arms!!! Not a nice place folks, stay away!!! In fact most of "Buckfast Triangle" is a deadly zone......Airdrie, Hamilton, Larkhall, Motherwell, Coatbridge, Carfin, Newmains, the list is endless! good protestant strongholds lol well apart from carfin maybe,ive seen the grotto Is it......................
