Below is my "Postcard Friendship Friday" entry. It is a humorous postcard from 1960. I have seen many of this style of postcard for the United States also. The artwork is always quite similar. The ribald style of humor is, too. I would guess that most of the Scottish humourous postcards would involve under-kilt jokes.
Click here for my favcrite Loch Ness Monster-related music video. It is Synchronicity II from the Police. It has the memorable lyrics as "shout above the din our Rice Krispies" and "packed like lemmings into shiny metal boxes". The video was filmed in the brief trash era during the 1980s in which music videos were filmed on soundstages where the air was filled with blowing garbage.

I love the Police. I saw them on their Synchronicity tour. It was a great show.
That's a cute monster.
I want to believe there's a Nessie out there, but it looks like a boat to me.
good posting.I enjoyed the postcard.
Loch Ness Monster? I've heard this story since when I was young. I don't think if Loch Ness is there, it is still alive? Or it does? who knows?
Cute card you got!
My Bangkok Through My Eyes!
You Got A Posty
Poor Nessie, she just can't get any respect.
Hilarious, great post. I believe there is a Loch Ness Monster, my boys actually did a fair bit of research in this area. Maybe will plan a field trip.
Oh, MY!
I love the male fantasy aspect of this...I mean the women couldn't be more shapely or more thrilled by whatever they see there :-)
Love the Police...
Too, too funny! Loved this post and postcard.
Legendary! :)
Your post card is a hoot. As for the Goggle Nessie... I'm not seeing her.
I enjoyed the Police video. We call the tourists here "lemmings".
Fun post.
:)
haha...i guess one way or another, a monster is definitely lurking out there!
Is that a Nessie lure under your kilt, or are you just happy to see me?
Is it just me, or was that a really half-hearted guitar slam at the 2:28 mark? C'mon fella! Put a little more effort into it. As for the google monster... The higher the magnification, the more it looked like SpongeBob.
I was thinking Squidward maybe.
Excellent song.
"Many miles away, something crawls to the surface..."
Golly! I knew that I should have moved to Scotland instead of Germany!
