Pig — Things in Scots #5
Hi All 👋 and welcome to December’s project: Things in Scots. This month I am collaborating with my grumphieA pig is a vase, also known as vawse. In this case we have gum-flooers in a pig!
Pig/flooer vawse (flower vase) All the Scots words for these posts are taken from The Concise English-Scots Dictionary, by the Scottish National Dictionary Association. The words chosen will be the generally accepted term, but as in all languages there are regional variations, as well as sub-species variations. For example, an owl is generally known as a hoolet in Scots, but an ool in Shetland & the NE. A barn owl is a white hoolet & a long eared owl, a hornnie hoolet.
As we do these posts, we’re learning as well; so we apologise in advance for any mistakes?
If any of you out there have a burning desire to know the Scots word for anything, please let us know!
Hae a guid day

Crystal Glow — Tuesday Photo Challenge
Hi All 👋 My entry for Frank’s Tuesday Photo Challenge: Glow.

Owing to the varying thickness and chrystaline structure of the holder, each aspect diffuses the flame within differently; the flickering of the flame also alters the intensity of the glow coming through the walls of the holder.
