Oooh you're a naughty mess

completely forgot about the phenomenal and the noumenal till i read the words near t'very end of glue/ i wish to the gods and minerals and constellations welsh'd stick to writing in 'schemie' scots/ when he writes 'proper' english its embarrassingly bad as he displays a distinct lack of confidence and thus comes across as, at best, inelegant/ it is a shame because the bulk of the book's (unnecessary) 656 pages are written in 'leith-ian' and are largely excellent/ e.g. juice terry lawson - what an excellent character/ welsh seems, i speculate, to have an ambition to be a 'proper' writer, and by that i mean to wield the beautiful, restrained and elegant prose of say f. scott or d.h./ however welsh can write very well, albeit within a limited field/ but as inflexible and narrow as his abilities may be, when he writes in the dialect of leith he is superb/ man's got to know his limitations, likesay/
