Gonnae

I just love this - it epitomises all I adore about Glasgow.
"Gonnae" is used in all sorts of ways within " Parliamo Glasgow", as in
"Gonnae no do that?" ( Trans: Please don't do that any more)
I read this story today.
Mr. & Mrs. McClumpshy are on the Costa del Plenty beach.
Mr.M turns to his wife and says " Put some o' that sun stuff on ma back"
" Haw hey," says Mrs. M. " Manners. Gonnae put a gonnae in there?"
Wonderful.
