Two of my favorite things

 
1) watching a video that explains something I didn't know, and 
2) listening to people speaking Scottish English.

Re the latter, may I heartily recommend the movies of Kelly Macdonald (Trainspotting x2, No Country For Old Men, but especially Puzzle).

  3. Do you know the comedian/raconteur Billy Connelly? That's some hilarious Scottish English and no mistake! I can certainly recommend a few clips if you don't.

  4. Also I would suggest comedian Fern Brady. Lovely accent.

  5. On the accent thing, I'd also recommend the songs of Eddi Reader. It's definitely more Glasgow that the Skye / West Coast lilt, but.... lovely.)
