May contain a heavy dose of Jim Kerr
I posted this on my Facebook feed just now and decided to add it here. I’d love to ask Jim his thoughts on it…but I may as well call to Ailsa Craig for all the good it will do. I no longer feel comfortable with posting things to SMOG and that would most likely be…
