But the older ones, sometimes, dinna understand English tae well, and I feel, in such a place, as if it was asking a great deal to expect them to turn oot to hear me.
And yet they'll come.

I've had some of my biggest audiences in such places, and some of my friendliest.

I'll be sure, whiles I'm singing, that they canna understand.

The English they micht manage, but when I talk a wee bit o' Scots talk, it's ayant them altogether.

But they'll laugh--they'll laugh at the way I walk, I suppose, and at the waggle o' ma kilts.
