Doesn't matter if it's Scotland, Ireland, Wales or England - it's applies all the same.
But it is using things in appropriate social situations I was trying to describe Pyramid - in workplace, I speak 'posh' and 'proper' - in a sh*thole in Methil for the football I speak badmouth. Difficult to make the switchover!

I'm never sure if that makes me a situation "*****" that I can do it?

I talk the same regardless of my surroundings. If people don't like it they can go and take a running jump! :)

Oh god.. where are you from again Pyramid??

If I have offended you too, then I'm sorry!
Karly was pure Methilhill - EXCELLENT that a 'normal' person got in the house - pure housing estate - then my ears hurt to hear her voice on TV because we are not so used to extreme regional accents on the tele!

That's like somebody saying they dislike the English accent! Look at how many regional variations there are!

You can't compare the likes of an Edinburgh accent with an Aberdonian one.. And I'm really sorry if there is any shee.. Aberdonians here, but to me they ARE one of the worst!
All Scottish seem the same to me.
