      That rarest of birds - a Scotsman with a suntan.

              Good news/bad news:

              Bad news -they're losing freedom of speech.

              Good news - nobody understands a bloody word they're saying anyway.

              Made me think of this sketch:

              Link to video

              Back in the 90’s I got to know a bunch of oil patch Scots from Grampian Region. With a bit of effort and nights of drinking I got to understand their brogue and expressions pretty well.

              Elbows up!

                When I worked in the UK we used to go up to Aberdeen quite a bit - we ran training courses for Shell and others. It's surprising how quickly it all starts to make sense.

                    Because you can see Scotland from her house?

                        The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.
