Welcome to my Taigh! Tis a braw bricht day the day, ye ken. An' to ma Welsh cousins,
Bore Da ! Sut dy'chi ?
Here's a wee poem for ye, what ye might call a wee Highland love song -
A Highland Swain to His Love
I have a croft on yonder hill,
A little small and stumpy
And yet ye keep me waiting still
For a bit o' rumpy pumpy.
For ye're a lassie, I'm a lad
And waiting's such hard labour,
Ye know it always drives me mad
When ye watch me toss ma caber.
It matters not tae me, my lass,
If ye be Scots or foreign,
Ye'll love me when ye see, my lass,
What I've got in ma sporran. |  |
Tis gae glad I am tae be back wi'ye again. Will ye no take a wee dram of good whisky ?
Ye'll be askin' yersel' - is oor Macpherson here a true Scot ? Weel, if ye must ken, ma family hail frae the fair city o' Dundee - Fourth City o' Scotland. Ye should visit. Here - tak a wee look at the city's website
The City Of Dundee
Och, I'll bet that has warmed the wee cockles of yer heart ! Come, sit ye doon by the fire, and we'll share another wee dram, and tell tall tales to while away the lang winter's night ye ken .
Aye, weel I recall that a lady - and not a good Scot, I might add - once approached me and asked
" Is there anything worn underneath the kilt ? "
to which I was more than happy to reply,
"Nay lassie, its all in perfect, working order, I can assure ye . "
Aye, we're a hardy bunch, ye ken. Tis a hard life when ye've a fierce north wind blowing up yer Trossachs for ten months of the year. As my dear father used tae say,
"Och, yer'vegattogieittaethesesassenachscroggers, theypuckedthebeestbutothewhoolecountryannaemistakabootut!"
I havenae got a clue what he was talking aboot.
If ye've a wee while tae stay, look around you, and drink in the scenery. Living here in the Great Glen, which lies between the twin peaks of Ben Down and Ben Dover, which seperate us from the Glens - Glen Campbell, Glen Miller and Glen Hoddle, we're sheltered from the worst of the winter storms.
Tis a shame tae admit it, but I do have a few non-scottish alter egos. Perhaps ye'd like tae visit Londinius Romulus
Nimrud Enkidu
Paullu Inca
Ye're leaving ? Weel, dinnae forget- haste ye back, haste ye back.
