  Hi, Tom!

  Who knows what kind of stuff has been going on for centuries up there in
that little country full of guys in windswept skirts?  ;-)

Maist Laddies Ye see that wey are eether Americun toorists oar Japanananeses
thae days. :-)
When thair lasy year ah only saw kilts oan buskers and the mannie in the
Museum o' Surgery.

  Well, I was referring to the usual version of the song.  Ain't that
enough? Elaborate?!  Don't the words speak for themselves?

Being innocent I have never realised there were naughty undertones to this
song I learned at school. On detailed reflection I think I see your point.

    ... And don't you dare insinuate I have a dirty mind, young man!

Ah'll gie Yew 'young man' Ye gomerell Ye !
Hae a guess whae turnt sivinty oan 19th o' this munth ?

So thair Ye are then Kiddo. :-)
