Yes, I was joking about Maryhill Rd...It's near St George's Cross, next to a pub and a bookie's. Legions of little old drunk men, specially bred in Glasgow, weave from one to the other and then accidentally fall onto her (locked) shop door.
My stepmum is interesting in that her speech rhythms and body language are very, very different from what's expected in Britain or in Europe. Initially it's very disconcerting. Still is at times, which I find kind of personally shameful as a supposed card-carrying liberal. It's a whole plane of Otherness, I think.
