I’ve finally gotten around to posting this video from
YouTube as a follow up to my Learning to Love Disappointment post from February
2011. The final moments of the US Open
Men’s Final – known by me as the day our lad did indeed get there – as seen
through the eyes of a pub full of Scots.
Yes, it did make me cry and I did watch it more than once. Brilliant, amazing and overall one of the
most rewarding things I’ve ever seen…I think I mean the match; but I most
likely mean this video too.
And in case you want to sing along (Of course I did!):
O Flower of Scotland,
When will we see
Your like again,
That fought and died for,
Your wee bit Hill and Glen,
And stood against him, (‘gainst who?)
Proud Edward's Army, (bastards)
And sent him homeward,
Tae think again.
When will we see
Your like again,
That fought and died for,
Your wee bit Hill and Glen,
And stood against him, (‘gainst who?)
Proud Edward's Army, (bastards)
And sent him homeward,
Tae think again.
Those days are past now,
And in the past
they must remain,
But we can still rise now,
And be the nation again,
That stood against him, (‘gainst who?)
Proud Edward's Army,
And sent him homeward,
Tae think again.
Pure dead brilliant!
