Foreign Languages

[DerekBrad]

Is there any truth in the rumour that the magazine bodies are busy working on an English/Jock dictionary? Having worked with said lads from t'North in Corby for some years, I can pretty well understand most of the lingo (although after 17 years there was just one fellow from Peterhead who always seemed to be saying the same few words strung together...quite unintelligible) Our favourite contributor has a guid (!) sense of the language and can be very entertaining but I feel sorry for the ones who have not been educated in the tongue. Hope your Ma is on the mend, by the way.
