That's great, Brian Bilston has such a way with words! Awick took me a bit to work out, but think it's 'oik'.
I second South Bridge and Clerk Street area for Edinburgh eats. For Oban in August best to book ahead for meals for a group, they could try the Beach Café at the Ocean Explorer Centre near Dunstaffnage Castle

Can't work out if that's dialect, Denglisch or just Kauderwelsch!
Something I've only noticed in Germany, to be honest. Not aware of it being standard in Scotland, though it obviously should be!
Two photos of the riverside in Düsseldorf Germany. The top one in black and white taken apparently in 1990 of a four lane road and the bottom one apparently taken in 2019 is the same view full of grass, trees and people enjoying a sunny day
Düsseldorf, Germany put the road into a tunnel shortly after the first picture, apparently taken in 1990, and turned the riverside into a great place to be
A ghost building on Robertson Street in Glasgow. I love all the different phases visible in the stone and brickwork.
