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.

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"
