That's why I like to walk and if I am feeling brave take the scooter.

Or elsewhere?<br /><br />I love how words can be so unique to a place!ms toast burnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01814575117201965403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6299642067717583565.post-44190838868415830002009-10-22T17:12:22.264-07:002009-10-22T17:12:22.264-07:00It's a Scottish term for grocery shopping.
