Yeah Glaswegians are friendly even if you can't understand what they are saying.

They get annoyed if you pretend to understand and nod when you clearly do not. I once had someone with a broad Glaswegian accent ask me something on the street and I think I literally had him repeat himself a half-dozen times before I finally got it.

Glasgow is a very nice city and I live in Kelvinside, not Easterhouse.

I'm an optimist, but yes I hold the red passport, so British. And no, unlike many of my Yankee brethren, I have no ancestral ties. I just like it here.

An incomer!

You can't naturalise as Scottish (or English or Welsh) anyway, only British....

Only by naturalisation, though I know that unlike America the natives will never accept an immigrant like me truly as one of their own.

Makes a change for the Germans to invent something.

Too logical. They captured a live 'Upkeep' bouncing bomb (technically a mine, but still) from a crashed Lancaster in 1943, called it 'Kurt' but couldn't get it to bounce. Never thought to back-spin it see.....

Good card players!!!

(Actually Scottish and German roots)

[seanraaron]

Um, it was invented in Septicland.

In 1950.
