scottish slang: an education ^_^

Hello! *waves*

So, being a Scottish Vlogger, I know i tend to use words/slang that some people havnt heard before or just simply don't know the meaning of from time to time...esp in my last *Rabbie Burns* inspired video (link below)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kQYnoUl79vc

To help (lol) i thought i'd do a wee *scottish slang* video for you all to enjoy!
Thank you to this lovely scottish vlogger for the idea:

I'm from Aberdeenshire and when I went down to East Kilbride to pick up a lorry from the main Wiseman depot the boy in the garage couldn't understand a word I was saying

I think we need to recognise the difference of slang and Scots, you have a good list of words that are purely Scots that is a language and not slang. Yes wee have varying dialects of Scots from all over the country but then we have great words like glaikit or scunnered that are much better in my opinion than the standard English we are all taught at school.
