READ THIS:
Scottish customer in French shop: ‘Oeufs?’
Assistant: ‘Douze?’
Customer: ‘Naw, Hen’s…’
In an attempt to fight these present-viral blues, I pulled the above off the shelf and read the section ‘Frecossais’. Somewhat cheered over the four pages, I came to the above, right at the end.
I don’t often laugh out loud. Jaundiced or too far gone, I don’t know, but that had me in full chuckle and worked again and again for a good five minutes.
I may be a bit odd but then so may you be. I can only hope.
In the interests of the nation (oor wan!) get this shared ya wee….
And buy the books. You can afford them.
Maybe Tom Shields will ‘shield’ us from CV?


I’m reminded of the counting out rhyme used when I was a nipper in Buchan.
“Cocky lockie hen pen
Doo’ s dirt amen”
