Number six applies. That's why I'm hardly ever sad.

Haha! May, of course not - just a couple of people with a drink in them round about where I live, who happened to notice me smiling.

Of course, what I quoted was probably Scottish Gaelic whereas your wording was Scottish English. All very confusing for some of us, also within English when spoken by someone from Scotland it does differ in phrases.

I had to dash off out so never got to checking it further or posting again on the thread. I should have known better as I have Scottish friends and my best friend, now sadly no longer with us, was Scottish.

Well at least, if nothing else you've saved me going to the translation website again!
