Qu'est-ce que tu dis, mon ami?? Surely you're not insinuating anything untoward here... hehe As you can see my French is suffering horribly for lack of practice, in much the same way my Italian is...

No, hon, no insinuations... just the thought that you seem to be at ease with us older ones, and it's a nice feeling to have you as a friend.

Weegie is a derogatory term used in Scotland (though most particularly in Edinburgh, where i hail from) for a person from Glasgow. It's not the capital, and it never will be hehehehe

Weegies are known for their thick, inaccessible accents. I genuinely have trouble understanding some of the things that you hear on the streets of Glasgow...

Thank you, sox, I thought it was just me and I have always been embarrassed to admit it. When I was about 16 I made friends with a rather unusual Mormon missionary. He was from Glasgow and we shared musical interests. He introduced me to Tim Buckley and Johnny Winter while I shared with him the delights of String Driven Thing (although he should have known about them) and the Edgar Broughton Band. He left me a whole pile of his albums to look after when the mission boss found he had such ungodly contraband in his luggage. I took them back to mission control in Reading on the bus one day.

Despite our friendship I don't think I ever understood a word he uttered. Last thing I heard about him from a third party many years ago was that he had taken a knife to his companion Scared

I've been living in Glasgow for over 3 years now and if you stay out of the east end or Maryhill then it's fine.

Interestingly, I used to have a very negative view of Glasgow when I lived in Edinburgh, but I've actually found that Glaswegians (weegies) to be friendly and a lot more welcoming that the stereotype gives them credit for.

Having said that, I did work with a guy that lived in the east end and he said he rarely needed to watch TV as it was all happening outside his front window. He'd come in to work with stories of knifings, beatings and what not that he'd witnessed from his home. Sky TV really need to set up a base in his house from which to film Street Wars.

I think Glasgow's a great city and Edinburgh too. But the accent in Glasgow is as bad as Andaluz in my part of Spain. I genuinely can't understand a word of either. Andaluz is a language totally devoid of consonants and Glaswegian is harder to understand than Dutch. I like the Scottish accent in the Highlands, nice and slow and clear.

Oops, are we getting off topic again? Pass the Rioja, dear.
