    You really need to check out this page for further examples, both male and female
    Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

      Although wood is pronounced differently north/south of the border, I think both sides pronounce wood the same way as would.

      Suit and soot however are different. North of the border, both sound much the same. In the south of England, soot is pronounced with a similar vowel sound to how should is pronounced, whereas suit is more similar to the Scots pronounciation.
