Scots

I'll be doing an oral report on Scots in a seminar on the varieties of English after Christmas, and I am thinking about using this example to introduce what the video says is the Tayside accent:

There are a surprising number of eager Scots who have uploaded guides to their accent or lessons (such as Learn Scottish with The Hedrons, or John's Scots Language Primer), and there's also a group of people who are doing recordings in Scots - like the group of people who are uploading the Bible in Scots.

Here's Psalm 23:

I really miss this accent.

Christmas cards!

.

Goodness, it's already December.

If you'd like a Christmas card from Crocky and me, please comment with your address or e-mail us at mothwing at web dot de.

We'll put them in the mail next week so that they'll arrive on time and won't get lost in the annual Christmas postcard avalanche like they did last time. I hope the post won't mess them up the way they did this time  - for some reason, two thirds were returned or never arrived back then.
