When I sailed on a Standby Vessel out of Aberdeen I actually struggled to understand my crew, had no idea what some of the Scots were saying. Some of the accents are just incredible.

Well, we did try to keep those Scottish barbarians out by building a wall across the country, but somehow they got in and started running things.

its hard to understand scottish accent!

... some of the Scottish accents CAN be difficult to follow - even for a native Scot like me!

And if a person is hard of hearing - AGAIN like myself - then, of course, it becomes so much worse.
