Talk of 'tims' on the Rangers Have Gone Into Administration thread has reminded of something my dad used to say about his dad, my grandad (who died when I was too young to remember him), he used to say that he worked "timming sand boats". This was always said in the context of how he (my dad that is) not only never 'ad nuthin' ever and how he felt looked down on because his father only "timmed sand boats". This was entirely incomprehensible to me as a child but, thanks to the internet, I discover that 'tim' is a Scots word (verb + adj.) for 'empty' and a sand boat is some kind of dredger.

Anyone remember that word that sounded like "honners"? I don't know if it was the same word as "honours" but it was the term for somebody who would back you up in a fight. We used it constantly.

hauners. Like handers, as in giving you a hand, I believe.

Interesting. Never would have guessed that.

I sometimes suspect that when two Scots converse they only understand the half of what each other is saying.

Depends what circles they are from. It's been a long time since I heard someone who had a really extreme accent with lots of slang I didn't know.

Don't know if anyone else noticed but, in his press conference with Theresa May, Trump said his mother was from Stornoway, "That's real Scotland." I expect Trump would consider these protestors to be not real Scots.

not true scotsmen, as it were

Whenever I see the latest brexit thread I think "ne'er cast a cloot till May is oot", which is the only way I've ever encountered that phrase, and that makes me think of this phrase, said of someone who's overfond of drink: "she could drink it through a shitey cloot"

I met a colleague's wife outside the office today and she said "I'm waiting for bawjaws" in reference to her own husband.
