My ultimate favourite is bahookey - used many times here.

Also (from when we were wee) we used to "ahm urn't" a lot.

As in playing tig:
"You're het"
"naw ahm uren't"

Hee hee

bawbag
moofae
it's dingin' doon!

Dp rather fond of glaikit atm

what i like most of all is how some of Scots switch how they speak depending on what company they're in.

if they're surrounded by all Scots, for example, in an informal setting, some will lapse into dialect.

glaiket
hullacut
jammy piece

granny calls DH a "scunner" and I am of course a "wee queenie"

My grandad use to send down the Broons and Oor Wullie annuals for Christmas every year.

As I've tasted the tatties of Buchan

breenje - old wifies go 'breenjin' with their trollies in supermarkets.

DD1, instead of running for a bus, walked calmly to the shelter, sat herself down and said, 'Ach, well, it's away the noo. Have a wee seat.'

Aha! Here's a couple you haven't had:

Gamp

Stay - meaning live "where do you stay?" "I stay in Glasgow"

And my father's favourite expression: "twa's up and the ba's burst"
