@EnglishAndBeautiful the germans also died quite gladly for someone; it´s some more than 75 years ago now. Think about it Greetings from Germany

[bernhardtsen74]

Damn time goes by so fast!

Lost a cousin in cheko in 91, fathers getting 80 these days!

Which brothers and sisters do we lose these days?

[EnglishAndBeautiful]

As a loyal Welshman watching this, I feel so proud to be allied to Scotland and to England. You just feel such an incredible sense of loyalty and devotion. God. This Kingdom means so much to me. I would gladly die for it tomorrow - and for The Queen.

[username1me]

@EnglishAndBeautiful why would you gladly die for the Queen? what has she ever done for you?

[rangers18731983]

@username1me she rules our land which is free and democratic , its called loyalty to your country and she is our queen, i dont think he ment he would go fight specifically for her personally

[username1me]

[Scotsbell]

yes that's right, it's Ayrshire dialect.

[HazeGreyAndUnderway]

My grandpa had this humorous way of singing Auld Lang Syne; something to the effect of "It may be so, but I don't know, your story isn't quite clear. So quit your jokes, and we don't want your lies; we take no bullshit here."

[keef71]

[dean11081988]

i think its latin for old lost friends monferto im not realy sure but i think iv heard it called that beffore but it can be checked on some web sites if you check i hope that helps

[Scotsbell]

Literal meaning is "old long since" which really means "days gone by" or "long long ago". The dialect is old Ayrshire which is where Burns was from (lowland Scotland)

[DerBadischeGryphen]

old long since = very long ago

it's dialect.

[whingenjock]

old times sake
