    The Doric

    Anyone else spot this long piece on the Doric on the BBC website?

    http://www.bbc.com/travel/story/2021...ourth-language

    When I was at primary school in the 70s/80s our dominie taught us Doric. Then when I got to secondary school it was a complete no-no.

    (We had one kid whose answer to any question any teacher asked was always, "fit?". Used to drive our English teachers in particular round the bend.)

    Well min, now that you’ve released the news of where your green final paper round was, I can guess that you’re primary school was in Tarland but you had to go up market and attend the almost home counties secondary school in Aboyne.

    The Queens English would definitely have been compulsory there min.


    Fit?
