WEEKEND IN PICTURES

Random Scots pre-Scotland v Italy game


Kilts galore!


Yes, Scotland lost 2-1 to Italy and it looks as though Scotland will not progress to the Euro 2008 games; a shame. Ah well, it was exciting while it lasted and hey, if you're going to lose to someone, it may as well be the current world champions, no? Nevertheless, like 90% of those that watched the game, we sought comfort in the sauce afterwards, replaying that joyous moment when we tied with Italy.
Oh, and an observation: you know you are in Scotland, watching the national football team play when someone screams at the telly, "COME ON, YAE CUNTS!"

neds + booze = trouble + Scotland football game = somewhat civilized neds
I really like your blog! If I wasn't a 36-year-old married mother of 3, I'd completely want your life!
I live in the U.S. and I'm writing (trying desperately, anyway) a book. My heroine might be moving to Scotland or taking a vacation there and I'm looking for someone I could contact for insider information on what it's like to be a foreigner there. (Although it seems that you aren't one anymore!) I don't have a blog posted here, but you can respond to my post. I would only have questions on slang, on how you were treated, stuff like that. If you could help, I'd appreciate it!
Thanks!
