Glasgow is the largest city in Scotland and third largest in the United Kingdom, although as an Urban Area only the fifth most populous in the United Kingdom. The city is situated on the River Clyde in the country's West Central Lowlands. Scotland's greatest shopping capital. Now lets go and source out a good shoe shop and buy some funky tartan heels.

Part of my families heritage is Scottish. In fact, there is some ruins of a castle that was supposed to have belonged to a family member at one time. I hope to be able to visit Scotland someday and check it out for myself!!!

That isn't the queen, is it?
Wow, I never knew Glasgow was that big. I've only been to Scotland once, when I was 8. It rained a lot, but I enjoyed the holiday (us guys from Devon are well practised at stubbornly having good fun in wet weather!)
This is great since my kids are trying to ban me fro using any words that are in their lexicon of cool, so now I will have my own!
Thanks for visiting my blog! I enjoyed reading your interview which made me appreciate bloggers even more!

Ah, I haven't been over here in ages! Missed that wonderful voice of yours.
love the interview...never heard of the word 'Gadgy' before. Thanks for the education.
I've got to use that word some time very soon! :)
wow interesting - did only gypsies get respect in Nortumbria?
I guess if you are royal you can pick your nose in public. Not that you should!
I'm using this word, starting now!
I must start saving my pennies to book my flight to Scotland.

@Alex the Queen takes a shit too, believe it or not.

@Mary thanx for the opportunity

@Matthew with yer wee finger buried deep into the first knuckle up her nose, I would say she could be labeled as a Gadgie.
