What a fucking place to belong to... In any part of the British Isles the people are divided by accent. No scots speak with a plummy accent?

Scotty Tunbridge Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 Giving your son the same first name as your ownCatching up on this thread. This is definitely weird AF. There is a family living round the corner who have carried the name ‘Alec’ on through four generations. The tiny grandad who can now barely walk is still referred to as ‘Big Alec’, His son still gets called ‘Wee Alec’ by them even though he’s now taller than his dad and has had his own son and grandson both called ‘Alec’. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
