Ian Black, bestselling author of Weegies v Edinbuggers, returns to the fray with a new collection of crackers for Christmas. The Almost Completely Ultimate Weegie Jokebook is a brand new collection of gems both rough and polished from the rich Glasgow seam of jokes, anecdotes and tall tales.

Like the tale of two Weegies on a fishing trip in the Highlands, who on arrival at the fishing hotel of their choice, are standing gazing open-mouthed and dumbstruck at the humungous salmon mounted above the reception desk. After a long pause, during which that green eye for which Weegies are renowned slowly blinks open, one turns to the other and says, ‘The man who caught that is a bloody liar.’

Or there is the Weegie T- shirt : ‘These are my breasts. My face is higher.... And I’m a guy. You got a problem, pal?’

You will laugh, you will fall about, you will go down the pub and repeat them.
