Squeak up. :)

Wee, sleekit, cow'rin, tim'rous beastie,
O, what a panic's in thy breastie!
Thou need na start awa sae hasty,
Wi' bickering brattle!
I wad be laith to rin an' chase thee,
Wi' murd'ring pattle!

I'm truly sorry man's dominion,
Has broken nature's social union,
An' justifies that ill opinion,
Which makes thee startle
At me, thy poor, earth-born companion,
An' fellow-mortal!

I doubt na, whiles, but thou may thieve;
What then? poor beastie, thou maun live!
A daimen icker in a thrave
'S a sma' request;
I'll get a blessin wi' the lave,
An' never miss't!

Thy wee bit housie, too, in ruin!
It's silly wa's the win's are strewin!
An' naething, now, to big a new ane,
O' foggage green!
An' bleak December's winds ensuin,
Baith snell an' keen!

Thou saw the fields laid bare an' waste,
An' weary winter comin fast,
An' cozie here, beneath the blast,
Thou thought to dwell-
Till crash! the cruel coulter past
Out thro' thy cell.

That wee bit heap o' leaves an' stibble,
Has cost thee mony a weary nibble!
Now thou's turn'd out, for a' thy trouble,
But house or hald,
To thole the winter's sleety dribble,
An' cranreuch cauld!

But, Mousie, thou art no thy lane,
In proving foresight may be vain;
The best-laid schemes o' mice an 'men
Gang aft agley,
An'lea'e us nought but grief an' pain,
For promis'd joy!

Still thou art blest, compar'd wi' me
The present only toucheth thee:
But, Och! I backward cast my e'e.
On prospects drear!
An' forward, tho' I canna see,
I guess an' fear!

My Blu Ray arrived today.  Now all I've got to do is collect it from the CityLink depot.  :bawl:

Liberace once said "the only difference between men and boys is the cost of their toys"   ;D

Well, it's out of the box, all set up, but for one slight problem, and that is, I can't get any sound via HDMI though the Arcam amp I bought only a few weeks ago.  Got to sort that one out, but other than that, the picture quality is outstanding, and it looks very cool too.  I'll be setting things up better when I get the new TV stand, but at the moment, it's taken the place of my DVD player.  I've only got one Blu ray disc, and that's I Robot, but I won't be able to watch it properly until the weekend, as I can't do the sound any justice with nipper in bed.

I think, at a tad over £200, when they are £250 in the shops, I got a great deal, and even at RRP, it wouldn't have been a bad price!  Overall, even at this early stage, well chuffed!   :thumbs:
