Dr George McGavin and the Scots word 'clarty'

Dr George McGavin is often out in the fields covered in mud. His passion for creepy crawlies leads him to some unusual places. He explains how some Scots words sum up how he feels after a long day searching for wildlife. Phrases which he can recall, include 'peelie wallie' and being found 'hae'in a guddle'. The eminent zoologist is never happier than when he is 'ha'en a keek' at nature.
