Dreich!

So, with Burn's night fast approaching, part of the boys' homework this week is to think of some Scottish words and what they mean.
Here is a perfect example of the word 'Dreich'.
According to the Urban Dictionary -
'A combination of dull, overcast, drizzly, cold, misty and miserable weather.
At least 4 of the above adjectives must apply before the weather is truly dreich'
:-)
Not a good day to collect my new bicycle!
But then this is Edinburgh and in 5 minutes there might well be sunshine!
