This has already been said but not how I remember my late Mam .

I can still here say this.

Looks Like I've Spent The Day Chasing A Red Herring .

(Wee John Running Too Fast In Front Of His Gran)

If Ye Faw 'N Skin Yer Knee
Dont Come Running To Me

 

A red herring is a very smoked fish, cured enough to last on long sea voyages, they were used to feed slaves & ironically have found their way into Carribean cooking.

 

My Dad had a saying he would use regularly:WINK1:.

" Go On Son Yur Bums Yur Ain ". Meaning I Was Bragging A Wee Bit Too Much:D.

Another One Was " See Him, He's A Bigger Bum Than Ten A****:D.

 

Is that live or baked in a pie ?

 

Digressing a little here. My daughter told me a story today ,it came from her friends mother,who was a School Teacher some years ago. The school was in the Capital of Scotland (Glasgow).
It was a parents night at the school, meeting with the teacher to see the childrens progress or lack of progress.
the Teacher asked the parents "How is John doing at his home with his Homework"??. the mother said "He seems
to be having problems with his GIZINTY". The teacher looked at the mother and said" excuse me what do you mean ,GIZINTY??. Reply from the mother was "well you know what i mean 2 GIZINTY 6 three times:DOH::DOH:.

GIZINTY is the older Glasgow Language for,( Goes Into ).

 

One of my mums: ( Anyone pretending to be posh)

" Look at Lord and Lady Muck from turd hall over there"!!

 

Whit's Fur Ye'll No Go By Ye > Whats Meant To Happen will happen
