Wings Over Scotland


Advertising promotion

Posted on January 16, 2014 by

As several people have been asking in the comments, we’re sticking this on the front page to make things easier for everyone. Kindly reader Ken McDonald (not the BBC’s one, we think) has rather generously designed and commissioned some spiffy Wings car stickers entirely off his own bat, and is offering them up for free. Though we’d hope you’d all be considerate enough to send him a stamped addressed envelope.

Just drop him an email and you can sort out the details.

    ooh if I send him money perhaps he can ship to Tasmania. I’d be very proud. Or is it better if they are all displayed somewhere Scottish voters can see?

    Excellent idea. Amazing what people will do when they like what you’re doing, eh, Rev?

    I would love one, but the wife owns the car and is very, very precious about it so there are no nice Yes decals on it, and this one wouldn’t fly either, Wings or not.

    I just have one itsy bitsy wee problem, where to actually put the sticker. ( No folks I’m NOT putting it over my mouth :)) Our Jeep is pretty well covered in YES stickers of all descriptions. 🙂

    I have asked and offered to pay for a dozen, Ive got a few racing Motorcycles and some of them will be raced, paraded or just exhibited this summer in Scotland, England and Belgium. On one of the bikes which will be raced in Scotland and Belgium I am going to have it painted in a
    YES theme so the WOS stickers will finish it off nicely.

    I really don’t know about that one Conan, I mean she really does have such a big mouth n all. Hell I can hear in Dumfries and Galloway when she “talks” in Westminster for gawds sake and no I don’t mean via the TV either! 🙂

    I have a Wings, a Newsnet and two Yes stickers on the rear windscreen. Had to remove the SNP Yes, as it spoiled the symmetry.

    Don’t be shy, give us a toot!

    Many thanks again, Ken, fine lad that ye are!

    Ronnie – I removed my SNP sticker and just kept my YES ones on to avoid the usual complaint that independence is all about the SNP. No scratches or dents yet and I’m in Labour loving Fife! Met Alex Salmond last Friday in Inverkeithing. What a man – he crossed the road in the rain to come and speak to the folk in the fish shop for a few minutes. A man of presence, intelligence, humour and very ordinary with it. I hope, like the vast majority on here, that he achieves his dream!

    Kinvinie – that pic was taken about ten minutes before my wife and I met him in the fish shop – he crossed the road from the SNP campaign HQ to say hello as my wife an I had met him before in Dunfermline. Great guy and Douglas’ fish is the best in West Fife!

    Interesting wee piece in the Guardian by Severin (no comments).

    link to theguardian.com

    In a softening of its stance on Scottish membership of the EU, a Foreign Office study being released on Friday by William Hague, the foreign secretary, will confirm that Holyrood could still keep sterling and the UK’s existing opt-outs on borders and social policy.

    Now that must have nipped to write that.

    Hi Stu. Why aren’t there car window stickers available in the shop? I think, more than ever now, we need some. With so much dissatisfaction with the press and decline in newspaper sales we need some advertising that will pull in more readers to the “news they’re not getting”. I think it needs the insignia, address and tagline “Read the news you’re not getting” or something. Plenty of new readers to be found sitting at traffic lights! 🙂

    Static window ‘clings’ I believe they’re called

    Static window ‘clings’ are the things I mean. Rather than ‘bumper stickers’
