    I knew about the systematic child abuse that was common place at Celtic during the 60's and 70's and said nothing.

    I knew that Torbet and others were plundering young bhoys assholes and I said nothing.

    I knew that young bhoys lives would never be the same after Torbets pork sword had penetrated their ****ters and said nothing.

    I now know why I only got offered the Pools.

    I KNEW

    "Middens" a truly great word, very descriptive. Don't hear it very often.

    I'm watching Time Team and they use the word "midden" all the time.

    Is it a Scotch word?

    " Scottish" word. Yes you're correct - it means a bin or bin area usually but is also used to describe a person e.g. "get yirsel tae **** ya clatty midden".

    It's an archaeological term for a pit or suchlike where people used to dump their waste, mostly things like bones and shells.

    I know what it means in archaeology thanks. I'm refering to its origin as it appears to have a different meaning and be in common use north of the border.

    In Glasgow, where I grew up, it's a generic term meaning any of the following:

    Waste Bins, The Shelter which covers the waste bins, an untidy home, a woman of loose morals, a filthy person. And more besides.

    Okay, in modern context it's much like wino says. It's an oft used phrase by parents to their kid on the state of their bedroom: "Look at the state of this place, it's like a midden in here"

    It's best used with "Clatty" as a prefix I feel.

    Yes "Clarty " is very English. I don't think I've ever heard anyone up here saying it.

    Someone who breenges rushes recklessly: "Ye've got tae make an appointment. Ye canny just breenge in an see them."
    A breenge is an example of doing this. "Now I don't want a mad breenge for the door when the bell goes."
    Someone who behaves impetuously may be called a breenger.
