That's the one I knew best thanks to Billy Connolly, but think Jimmy was the chap who had the option. I liked the way he explained that posh Glaswegians called the midden - the midding.
Yes - as in 'pick a windae, Jimmy'. Jimmy being a popular term in Glesgae parlance
I don't know if you're familiar with Stanley Baxter, @B3, but his Parliamo Glasgow sketches in his shows were legendary. Worth searching on YouTube for them. He was superb. My Dad [a Londoner] adored him
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
Enjoy @B3 A while ago, I was talking to youngest daughter about him, and we looked at some online stuff. She was howling with laughter. He's a bit of an icon up here. Rightly so. The shows were cancelled because they became too expensive to produce.
'Erra perra perrs oan a cherr owerrer' is a classic
