Boy, are YOU asking for it...

Linda: Really Linda this kind of cheap humour really, really will not do. It lets you down, it lets your blog down and, to be blunt, it lets your friends down. To add insult to injury your attempt at transliterating a broad Scots accent are in many respects woefully inadequate, e.g 'spik' for 'speak' is just ridiculous. I could go on but do not care to.

PS - I took the above paragraph down at dictation-speed over the phone from jwer! :-)
jwer - hope this ok. At some points you were speaking a bit fast and the line was not brilliant

Campbell: It's "spik" and you know it. See - that's the thing about blogs - they are yours to post whatever you like. If you had your own for instance, you could ridicule us Amurikenz, and give jwer that southern accent you seem to want him to have (what's with that anyway?).
Jwer: Quit helping.

Linda: bloody well is not!! If anything it's more likely to be 'speeek' with a sag in the middle
jwer: ignore her
