People from Glasgow are called Glaswegians? Man, I'm learning all sorts of interesting things today.

OH! Speaking of, I've been meaning to mention--and now that it's come up in my mind, I'll just do it here rather than dig up the appropriate thread because I'm lazy--just a short while after reading your explanation of the conventions of "panto," one of my son's favorite television programs (Bunnytown) ran a new episode which did the whole "He's right behind you!" "Oh no he's not!" "Oh yes he is!" bit. I was so happy to realize I was picking up on something I would have missed before.

In Scotland, Edinburgh specifically, they ate called Weedgies. If that sounds like a term of endearment, consider that it's usually proceeded by soap dodging and followed by scum.

I love it when something I've read in the Cellar manifests itself in real life! Pleased to be of service.

Of course I know the proper term for people form Manchester, but I figure it would be cheating if I joined in.
