There’s a couple of places in Manchester that bring them out like this too. Sure there’s some photos knocking around of me with one.
Read that “outwith” is supposedly a scottish word

what does it mean?
I read this too and I like it but have never heard it used irl.
outwith
yeah but what does it mean?
Outside of
“Sometimes I have to work outwith my normal hours”
oh yeah never heard of that here
sometimes notice myself saying “do you know what I mean?” after every sentence but you say it like jatamin
Greetings from Hoogy HQ
I’m here all day, every day. And they still haven’t found me.
The place on Liverpool road in the centre does. They’re almost the size of single bed sheets.
wo
akbars does… is that Liverpool road… near cask
Yep that’s the one I used to go to after a night out. Loved it in there. Also, when I worked in insurance I went on a site inspection and the kitchen was beautiful, had been worried I’d see something horrific and have so much regret for all my drunken visits. Also, the flats above it are really cool!
That’s the one
oh it’s an akbars in glasgow that does them like that
must be their thing
It’s blowing my mind a bit that this is just a Scottish thing
Yeah it’s always fun to stumble across these things. Everyone knows the phrases that are obviously local to your area, but when you realise that a “normal” word (see: squint) is also region-specific it throws you a bit
I avoid it in formal writing for this reason.
But would you catch some southern Englander changing “draw” to “drawer” to make sure they’re understood in the same circumstances? I think we all know the answer to that.
i found a word like that a wee while ago that turned out no one on here had heard of it before
can’t remember what it was now, but it was just a totally normal word
what an interesting post this is
@JaguarPirate it might have been squint actually
