Very good. Had to read a few of them back to myself in a Glaswegian accent to get it though!

I always liked this one:

Guys goes into a bakery and says 'is that a doughnut or a meringue?'

Baker replies, 'no, you're right - it's a doughnut'.

Actually I would be surprised if many outside Scotland could get the first one, unless they've seen Rab C ;)

I tried that one on my Canadian wife - met with a blank stare. After I had explained the joke, I was rewarded with the comment 'that's just silly'. Oh well, I laughed. She had not a clue about the fair/fare.

I did have the meringue one explained a couple of weeks ago though.

Excellent. The bus driver one is particularly Scottish. I don't think many south of the border will get that one.

I guessed. Leicester used to have the 'July Fortnight' for the hosiery factories, so I assumed it was the same thing...;)
