[HUGH]

Edited from today's Herald Diary - you can tell you're Scottish if ....

 

Scattered showers with outbreaks of sunshine and a cold northerly wind are your idea of good weather.

 

You are able to recognise regional dialects, such as Glasgow's "Orrite pal, gauny gies a wee swatcha yir paper'n'at, cheers, magic pal" or, from Aberdeen: "Fitlike, loon? Furryboots ya bin up tae? Fair few quines in the night, min." 

 

You are unsurprised to find one shop selling all of the following: pizzas, nappies, cigarettes, curries, milk, paint and shoes. 

 

Scotland go 2-0 up against the French, and you immediately think that getting beat 3-2 would be "no' a bad result". 

 

You have been to a church wedding where the football results have been announced during the service.



All true,

Hugh.
