Are we alone in the Universe? 

Evidence suggests that few are sure.

Now, the James Young telescope has identified four distant exo-planets and a moon of Jupiter capable of sustaining carrom. Science World writes that to enable boards, planets must have oxygen; water; trees; crops, a lathe and powder.

Of course, to reach the locations would demand fusion energy and a protractor capable of being bent backwards and able to spike treble twenty on a dartboard. 

In search of Scottish opponents for the SCL, all of Google has now been investigated. All of Facebook has been scoured. Twitter is ignorant. It took me a year, but I have now read the internet twice and if there is carrom life out there somewhere else in Scotland it is keeping it's head down. 

Perhaps it is that they know of us. 

Know how we have mastered the art of fluke. 

Or perhaps we are alone in Scotland..
