1. I'm from Royston, Glasgow. We understand each other perfectly but usually it's a lot of shite :P
2. not broad. sounds like a punter fae edinburgh
3. @madsen1971 Depends. I'm from Paisley, Glasgow and I don't have a thick accent. In fact I know a lot of people who do not. People from the same area as I. Depends on the area you're from, education, background in general.
4. I'm born and bred in glasgow and just outside it, so i don't even think this is a strong accent at all, and for some reason parody's of scottish accents are harder to understand than the real thing,
5. Best line was at the end. After naming all these obvious signs of being in Scotland, he goes 'apart from that, you canny really tell'.
6. @madsen1971 Ha, well I live in North Berwick which is quite close to Edinburgh, but my mum is from Surrey and she, after living up here for over 30 years, still finds it difficult to understand some Scots (like at MacDonalds lol). Yes, Glasgow is bad but I think the worst is Aberdeen and Dundee because they still use a lot of Scots vocabulary. Anyway, just imaging sitting a french exam when the narrative voice is a Glaswegian who is trying to speak french - stupid SQA!!! :D
7. @emma41093... Lol. At the time I could honestly only make out about 50% of what he was saying... After spending a week or so in the Edinburgh area I really started understanding the accent in general. I hear that the Glasgow accent is really thick though.
8. That is not a thick scottish accent, believe me :)
9. Its not that strong of accent..
10. The ticket guy had a fife accent like me whoop ;;
11. @JoyousinJesus not everyone in glasgow or scotland in that matter talks like that or like neds soo hen i think your trippping :)
12. hairy coos are real as are the bottles oh buckfast and the scots aint as thick as ye wid like eh
13. You're morons 
14. Can´t understand a fucking word from any of them.
15. HAHAHA Love the bit where he says the bottle o' buckfast, so true :p
16. am glasgowiegn, and am proud to be, and ano a canni spell it. but scotlands the fuckin best :D:D:D
17. ah my fellow canadians :)
18. @madsen1971 glad you had a nice time in scotland...we are a friendly race
19. The scottish accent is differant from town to town and city to city. 15 miles from my home the accent is milder than mine. That's why call centers are no use to scottish folk as it can be a long call. And when we are drunk it's a thousand times harder to understand us.
20. SCOTTISH accent is very cool
21. CrossCountry?
22. @forresbear1873 he's probably from Fife cause thats what my accent sounds like. :)
23. buckie; sad but true.

We were asking our Train Manager questions about the trip just to hear his cool thick Scottish Accent. I think he figured out what we were doing when he started to talk about flying Haggis and Hairy "coo's".
