14 Jan 00 - 04:55 PM (#162916) Subject: RE: Billy Connolly lyrics site From: Peter T. kat, can you find a site that translates Glaswegian into English? There are whole sections of the Crucifixion sketch that I canna' make any sense of -- and I have spent chunks of time in Scotland. A Connolly dictionary would be a Godsend (e.g. a wee jobbie = ) yours, Peter T. |
