Mon the Scots. Let's be having you!
I'm Neil, back for my fifth FAWM and really looking forward to all your tunes. -

@roddy Jan 2022
Jings! It's nearly started.

@gindark Jan 2022
I am back, 3rd FAWM, will I get to the finishing line this year?
-

Born in Broxburn Hospital and lived in Livingstone for the first 4 years of my life. Mum & Dad moved us away and we never came back :(
Always felt Scottish though, you know?
Have a great FAWM! -

"Europe and the UK"?
The UK is still part of continental Europe, you know! Also, what about Ireland? Also not part of the European mainland, and part of the British Isles, but not part of the UK!
Anyway, apparently the internet here in Scotland still connects with the rest of the world so hello from the dark ages until the UK finally pulls up the drawbridge completely! -

Happy Burns Night! I have my haggis ready for a feast this evening!
-
@ayehahmur Jan 2022
Cheers @emkaydeebee! I suspect we might be having the same!

@chriscrowing Jan 2022
Had great fun last year, getting my setup, well..,. set up again for this attempt.

Back for my 3rd FAWM. Originally from Ireland but been living in Scotland now for nearly a quarter of a century. Favourite word that seems to only be used in Scotland is outwith ...
-
@zxcvbnm Jan 2022
@lyricslinger Welcome. Outwith of that word I think our most expressive word is dreich. I don't think there is a real English equivalent.
-
@jtsteam Jan 2022
I'm English (Northumbrian) by birth but I've lived in Scotland for 17 years now and I even cheer when they beat England at [insert favourite sport] so I feel I've gone native... I will happily use 'outwith' in casual conversation if that helps :).
-
@lyricslinger Jan 2022
Yes, dreich is a great word. :) One of the benefits of FAWM is having something to do during the dreich February days
-
@ayehahmur Jan 2022
Sounds like we could do a wee unofficial challenge to slip some Scots (or even Gaelic) words/phrases into our lyrics? No pressure, but if you manage to do it stick the #scotswords hash tag on it when you post it.

@msculli1 Jan 2022
Lanarkshire here. I'm back for another 6 week song creation binge. Need to set up a work space again, so probably starting on the 3rd or something. Hope you all have a productive time.

@gindark Feb 2022
First day! I'd love to see it if anyone has already got tracks in, please put your hand up! (Not me, I'll be busy beating my old laptop until the mice start running round the wheel)
-
@gindark Feb 2022
How's it going for you guys? I've got 2 down and they are sketchy af but I'm happy with them nonetheless. One day, I can only dream they will get tarted up by a producer who knows more about how to make things sound as good as they do in my head. (WAV to MP3? I understand the concept of the drop in quality but srsly, it's like a different song!!)

@davidn Feb 2022
Hi there! I grew up in Inverurie, but now live in the US which is as big a barrel of laughs as you can imagine. It wasn't until I lived here that I realized "outwith" isn't a universally used word, and was told very quickly never to refer to house plants as "pot plants".

@siasa Feb 2022
Hi David - welcome!
