x-post from Natter: I have a question for someone Scottish, or someone who knows someone Scottish. A FOAF is writing a book set in Scotland and has a question about a turn of phrase.
Thanks!
I am a large, semi-muscular man. I can take it. Don't hide behind Mal 'cause you know he'll shoot it down for you. Tell me.

I grew up in Scotland, amyth, and I'd be happy to take a look. Mae Scots is a wee bit rusty, though.

Fiona, my FOAF's response to your answers. I thought I'd post it here.
This is exactly what I needed, the notes on context greatly appreciated. Please thank the Scottish Buffista very kindly for me!
What is a Buffista, by the way?
Maybe I'll just lend her Allyson's book.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
So apparently Moffat tweeted that if John and Sherlock weren't in love, he didn't know what love was. And that he was probably deleting it right away.
Yeah, trolling the masses.

Moffat is tweeting that he did not tweet that: [link]

Ah ha ha! That's even funnier than if it were authentic.

A reminder: UK Being Human, series 4, starts tonight.
I've set the box, but haven't decided if I'll be watching yet.
