Great article! Or I should say "that wis braw"!. You mentioned Irvine Welsh and Iain Banks, but what about the famous "Oor Wullie" and "The Broons" published by D.C. Thomson? If anyone doesn't know what I'm talking about just do a web search for either of these - they're fantastic cartoons!

Oor Wullie? My wifeie loves him. The good 'Sunday Post' is her favourite read.
Evne this Englishman likes to read it from time to time. Although I do have to ask the meaning of some of the words in Oor Wullie. Also 'The Broons' is very good.
Wonder if 'Dennis the Menace' should really be in a Scots accent, on the T V version?
