    Strange one this but all the time I spent in Glesga I would often use the phrase, "you'll get wrong" & they didn't have a clue what I meant.

    we had the kip - had a wonderful time.
    a scuddin - a good hiding.
    leary - wary.
    can yer mind? - can you remember?

    from my grandmother - as snotty as a polis (stuck up), she referred to someone as `carry on` when she forgot a name (as in, you know her, carry on 4 doors up), and she often threatened to clash me when misbehaving.

    When my father was alive he would always refer to Crumpet's as being Pikelets, yet we were never from the north so where he got pikelets from I will never know.
