Title: The Herald diary
Description: If all Scotsmen think they are a comedians, then the Herald newspaper's daily Diary column is their jokebook. When true life cartwheels over into humour or a joke is cracked in a Scottish office, bar or playground, it usually ends up in the Diary. The year 2011 has brought us royal weddings, Scottish elections, tumbling house prices, headline-grabbing football matches and dire weather. Yet Scots smiled through the lot, and told the Diary about it. This volume brings the very best tales from the column, proving that ordinary Scots are still the natural comedians of the world.
