Subject: RE: BS: Where do we get these wierdos?
I'm assuming that Morningside is a "booby hatch" from the previous postings. This to a Scot like myself gives rise to great hilarity, as Morningside is also a posh suburb of Edinburgh, and I'm sure that the stately matrons of that area would be outraged if they knew. It's a bit like The Hamptons on the social scale, and the accent is pure plum in the mouth. If you remember Maggie Smith's accent in The Prime of Miss Jeran Brodie that's it.
What's wrong with weirdos, it's bigots I can't stand!
