Harry’s 2016 Raspberry Awards

The Gonnae-No-Dae-That Award

Harry likes a wee retro TV from time to time, and “Chewin’ the Fat” gives a few chuckles on a dreich weekend night in the hoose. The ongoing sketch that featured the “Aonoch Mhor Lighthouse” keepers launched the phrase “Gonnae no dae that” and that’s Harry’s response to the story about Richard Baughman using an iPhone to read a drum score at the World Pipe Band Championships in 2016. Like the impish lighthouse keeper who drills holes in the chamber-pot, draws on magazines, and constantly pranks his pal, Harry thinks the iPhone stunt was just that, a wee attention grabber with no real point beyond the attention it attracted, and the controversy it stirred on social media. Gonae no dae that!
