And I used to worry about Gaelic ....

Whilst walking around Tescos this morning, what did I come across a new 'No 1 Ladies Detective Agency' book in old Scots language! I wonder how much of a market there is? I reckon they should give old Scots it's own TV channel and make sure the Scottish Government fund it.

Here is some more info about 'Precious and the Puggies':

This is a brand new, previously unpublished story from Alexander McCall Smith. A world first from Itchy Coo, this is a brand new book for younger readers, telling the story of the girlhood adventures of Precious Ramotswe, founder of the Number 1 Ladies? Detective Agency. Written by one of the world?s favourite authors, Alexander McCall Smith, and translated into Scots by award winning author, James Robertson, this story will not be available in any other language until later 2011. The Scots is simple and accessible, and a glossary will be provided for those not familiar with Scots words.
