Scorpios and stations

I travel all over on the trains to strutt my training stuff and scorpio spotting is becoming a real anorak obsession, because I seem to always see at least one near stations and only one has been a taxi.
Since Christmas I have seen them ourside or near to the stations in Bristol. Southend, Warrington, Wilmslow, Doncaster. New Pudsey and Chester (two).
On the way to Grantham station the other morning I saw three other scorps. I think we a six in the town, one of which is a taxi.
I am ashamed to admit that all these looked clean and immaculate compared with mine.

Yeah but Paul, Highlander is up up norrf in the wild beasty moors of Scotland where men are men and Scorpios are scarce!! so I gues we are down south to him.
Never thought of myself as a southerner before. First time for everything though

My black Cossie is sometimes in Chester station car park and matches your above description perfectly .
And Highlander is southern to me, I was born in Elgin and still visit family in Inverness regularly but, like good Scotsmen we often live somewhere else .

Well the taxi I saw was at Warrington - so a retrospective "olleH" to you Wumpster.
Should I smile and wink next time when you slow down to let me cross the road?
