About the Book

The Scottish language is rich in proverbs, sayings, maxims and wise aphorisms. Sadly, in the transition from the abacus to the computer, most of these have become outdated. This book thrusts these expressions into the 21st century, covering everything from bagpipes to whisky with a few mentions of our neighbours, the Sassenachs, thrown in.
