    was brought up in the 'broch' still go there every couple weeks. no-one believes that i am from aberdeenshire. i dont really have the broad doric accent. was brought up in both fishing and farming areas of the north east and have no problems understanding them, and when there i do seem to drift back into doric tongue.i have spoken to my polish staff in the doric tongue and they just look at me confused . i sent my mahal a book on the doric langage and she is trying to learn it. she mostly just uses AYE from time to time.
