] Date Posted: 16:19:46 11/14/04 Sun In reply to: Trixta (UK) 's message, "When a Scotsman is not a Scots man" on 14:58:50 11/14/04 Sun "Strange as it may be, a lot of Scots, particularly those in Glasgow, view Edinburgh as more English than Scottish." "the hard-drinking, chain-smoking, ship-building Scottishness that has more basis in reality and less in the warblings of Burns." You seem to define degrees of Scottishness in terms of how working-class it is perceived. This is not a definition that I share, and is in fact one that I find offensive. "Okay, do your best at speaking in a Glasgow accent" Which part of Glasgow, Govan or Kelvinside? [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] |
