Used ti go to school wi a wee laddie who talked like that - realise now he musta been fae Aberdeen and here's me putting it down to the fact he was a spastic!!!!

when i went home in tears my mam used to say " getae fook ye greetin faced bassa " , which i,m pretty sure is scottish for "don,t worry son mummy loves you "

My mother was scottish , and when I started school in Liverpool using words like , hoose , ben , ken ,trews , tatties etc etc made me really polular , kids loved to knock fk out of me .

I thought it was the English/welsh who had to guess lol

You must know what they mean......adopted Chookter and aw that!!
