"Och", speirit McEwok, poundin' hissel' oan the baulk o' his heid wi a
convenientlie-suppliet wee anvil. "Ah wiznae wantin' tae speik Weegie fer...
fa... fae... ahh... Edinburra. Hiv tae dae fae tae be goin' oan wi', ah
gess."

Wi' ane reiveris smile, McEwok yirdit the anvil, an' startit tae mutter
deirkly tae hissel' - bot quhen, ane wheen whistlin' haud efterwaurdis, the
caddie o' the lunk speirit his right fuit upoan its' landin', he left off
speirin, an' howlit like ane howlatt intae the luft.

"Cuntbitten, beshittin, lug o' iron," he flyted, quhen he had found his voce
agin, fetchin' a houk a' the iron wi' his guid' foot - bot agin he yelpit in
an agonie. Fer, ablins, even quhen lyin' in ane gutter an no fallin' frae
the luft because o' the actions o' fou, touchit, Michael-Scott-impersonatin'
Squiddis takin' their play in the comedie o' this waruld, ane iron anvil is
maist-times considerablie mair duir an' doughty than ane human fuit. An' so,
yelpin' like as tae ane whelp, McEwok fell back hard agin oan his buttockis
oan the croun o' the causeway.

"Ach," he said, efter several stunnit silences hid passed. "There sauld be a
statutit cautell tae bar oot this sort o' situation' fae happenin'..."

Sae saein', he haulit hissel, an wi a grim deirk froun oan him, rubbin' his
sair, cobble-bruisit postillions wi' ane hand, the quhile reachin' fer his
hip-flaisk an' unstopperin' it wi' the ither, he set oaf alang the close,
and back tae the weir an' strife ragin' in RASSM Citie...

"Ah gess ah'd better be about an' daen' somethin, then," he shrugged, takin'
a swig o' the limpit hervist-colourit water o' life....

Summarie: 3is poste be written out in 3e Scottis langue.

Och, me heid hairts.

As a primer for McEwok-speak, it's great. I'd been meaning to ask for
something like this.

Weak!

To my shame, my American flatmate (not the cheerleader!) has just
introduced me to the music of Dick Gaughan... even if it is a Leith
accent trying to disguise itself as Doric... and the politics will
probably make Steve spit...

You get mad points if you can make Tilson's head spin around like
Linda Blair's in the Exorcist. Double points if he projectile vomits
as well.

I think I'll just see if I can go for 'swallow' instead of 'spit'...
