cosie bosie

SCOTS - Scottish Corpus of Texts and Speech

Enjoying this. Did a quick search for bosie which is the one Scottish word the kids have grown up with and found this:

Mr Ted
Fin I pit on ma jammies, an climm the stairs tae bed
I ken that he'll be wytin, ma frien caad Mr Ted
An fin I coorie doon tae sleep
I'll haud him in ma bosie
He's made o fur, he disnae gurr
He's affa affa cosie

As Auntie Harriet says, 'there's naething like a bosie'!
