naijapay: The Scottish accent never ever fails to get me laughing. . I also find it sexy! Reading a poem recently titled 'Cudddle doon' (by Alexander Anderson). Goes thus:

The bairnies cuddle doon at nicht
Wi' muckle fash an' din
"Oh, try and sleep, ye waukrife rogues;
Your father's comin' in."
They never heed a word I speak.
I try to gie a froon;
But aye I hap them up, an' cry,
"Oh, bairnies, cuddle doon!"

Wee Jamie wi' the curly heid-
He aye sleeps next the wa'-
Bangs up an' cries, " I want a piece"
The rascal starts them a'
I rin an' fetch them pieces, drinks-
They stop awee the soun' -
Then draw the blankets up, an' cry,
"Noo, weanies cuddle doon!"

4 more verses of the poem to go and I am still laughing my socks off , and saying to meself ' I cannae really translate tha'!

Na lie! He was a full fledged brit, inside out, top down, complete with all the stereotypical facial/body features of una. Oga, na una they talk thru nose pass anybody else on the planet . American accent is easy to understand now, which american movie have you ever watched that you didn't understand? And don't even get me started on you folks driving on the wrong side of the road  . . . that was just about the freakiest thing I had ever seen  crossing the street almost became an olympic event as everything was opposite and required brain activity lol. Una self, too much drama
