Trust me to think rude things first.
I'd have thought 'have you got some?' would be Asthigorrenny?

Ids awreyt Gari.
Just depends which part of Accy you live in,
when I left school my first job was at Shepherd Bros Rising Bridge, every time bus stopped, and folk got on or off, there was a difference in the twang.
Not same today, its all muxed up wi folk having been brainwashed, by the one eyed monster in the corner.
Very few people these days, speak with the dialect I was brought up hearing.
Estigettenony= have you got any.
wadsfurmitay.
Retlaw.
