[BITList] The Glasgow copper.

[HUGH]

John,

That's a new one.  The only other Glasgow cop one I ever heard was thus. An assault took place on Sauchiehall Street, next to the junction with Hope Street. PC McGregor attended, noted the position, pulled the body round a wee bit and recorded it as Hope Street. Interestingly, and perhaps not, the end of Sauchiehall doesn't refer to a hall, but to a haugh, ie, a meadow. Sauchieha' was possibly deemed a rather common pronounciation by those and such as those, so it became hall.

Hugh.
