A young Glasweigan gent came up and said something like (in a pretty thick Glasgow accent):- "I'msorry,theguidehasn'aearrivedyet;she'srunninglate, sheshouldbeheresoon, butifno'we'll transferyetaeanotherbus,whichwillbealonginabootfiveminutes, okay?"
And I had to 'translate' [GGG].
The best bit of the bus tour came when the guide revealed that on trams in the last century gentlemen in traditional Scottish dress were barred from going upstairs on windy days.........[ :-) ].
