Some of you may recall that before starting mattgemmell.com, I had a previous blog at iratescotsman.com (my registration of which has long since lapsed). Today, I’ve imported the posts from that old blog into this one - around 500 posts in all.

Some things to be aware of when reading the old posts:

• Almost all links will likely be broken (especially inter-post links)
• Images will be missing
• The markup will probably be horrible
• Any original comments are missing
• Naturally, it'll be full of banal crap

I’ll address the missing-media issues on a case-by-case basis if I get feedback from people. In the meantime, some of the old posts should make entertaining reading - even if not for the reasons originally intended.
