Mince
My little sister just sent me this: www.youtube.com/watch?v=jP9BtScBQaI

It made me laugh a lot... but it also made me a wee bit homesick...

Anything really stupid remind *you* guys of home?

I was home last weekend
And my Mum made her ace mince and tatties and used the leftovers to make stovies. Stovies = win.

Also had a cracking haggis supper from the chipper. Grrr, I'm hungry now. And scared by that man's uber-ginger beard

skirlie nom
The accent does make me homesick. My one has been repressed by years of southern-softy living but flares back up whenever I phone my folks. The first time my flatmate walked in on me spikkin' teuchter she thought I had been possessed.

accent
My mum, my big sister and my gran all talk like that, but mine never appeared. Something to do with being posted to germany till i was three i think. Gotta be home a couple of weeks beforethe teuchter starts to re-appear..

Far in teuchterville div ye hail fae?

Edit in my head its my mothers voice saying that...

Technically nae a teuchter at all
as I'm from Aberdeen originally, but my Dad is and I seem to have picked up my accent from him. My accent snaps back straight away- I think it's a defence mechanism to stop me being slagged off by friends and family!

I'm actually down home just now
Before I start a placement in a couple of weeks. And for the second time in a row visiting home, I am ill. Joys. My fault this time though.

@POD
why's it your fault this time??

Well
I went out biking yesterday, and took my water pack. The hose hadn't been cleaned properly, had black bits inside, and I think some went in me. On the mend now though.

This is stupid
You know power station cooling towers? Always makes me think of home.

I work by Didcot power station. I have always been able to see it from where I live. When I'm coming come from trips, it's one of the first things I see. It's ugly as hell = but I see it, I know I'm near home. That, or I have some weird concrete tube fetish.

This is home. I refuse to move again.
I've been listening to my music all day after importing it from the external to the new PC and some of the stuff on there gives me the biggest year abroad nostalgiagasm (even songs I hated at the time!).

/unrelated flatmate has just discovered he's trading Pokémon under his Platinum username and not his DS username. So, if you're trading with Mr. Pimp you know who it is :)

any reference
To Rikki Fulton (the Rev I M Jolly in particular) or Chewin' the Fat tends to have me in hysterics.

I'm relatively lucky in that I get home every six weeks or so and lots of my friends are still there; I'm a self-confessed teuchter!
