MG,
What's the difference between a bairn and a wean
(spelling ?) pronounced " Wain"

Bairn is traditionally associated with dialects of the north and east of Scotland, wean is more often found in the south and west, and both terms occasionally appear in northern English dialects.

Yup Myron has it...

I do like 'our Joyce'.....
The pictures she paints in your mind are so funny, remember "stately as a galleon she sailed across the floor"?

I've replied on one of the other versions of this question!
