| 'Official' name for a person from Edinburgh? Posted: 12/20/2007 2:05:31 PM | Msg 31. Would it not be better for us scots to stick together rather than slagging each other off. Im from Edinburgh and dont consider myself to be either a WANKER or an arrogant tosser or whatever the delightful words were that you used.
I know a lot of glaswegians and there is good and bad in Glasgow just like any other place. Most of the 'weegies' I know are friendly people but so are most of the people I know from Edinburgh so I think you may have just been unfortunate OR it could be that you have a massive chip on your shoulder re Edinburgh and its population in fact you cant even say the name in your post, referring to it as 'That place' . Slightly OTT dont you think? after all it has just been voted the best city to live in this year so we cant all be that bad mate. | |

| 'Official' name for a person from Edinburgh? Posted: 11/10/2008 6:06:38 PM | I notice with interest that the previous poster after describing Scottish people as "Jocks" , has a dancing cocck in his post which I think sums up the majority of English people very well . I am from Glasgow and would call people from Edinburgh Eberdonian . Good question OP . | |
