A few years ago, my Dad was working in Glenrothes up in Fife, and often used to travel home at the weekend.
He also had a nice shiney new company car that had a nice shiney 6-CD changer in it, of which my brother an I were in awe. My brother was back living with my parents at the time, so I hatched a little plan.
One weekend, when my Dad was at home, I got my brother to secretly swap one of the CDs in my Dad's changer, so instead of getting Dire Straights, Eric Clapton or Pink Floyd, my Dad would be driving along to the not-so-melodic tunes of The Macc Lads.
When he retunred the follwing weekend, he had guessed who was responsible, and my brother and I had a bit of a chuckle. Whilst talking about this, somebody within ear shot said:
"Who are The Macc Lads?"
Dad replied "A punk band that sing about all these HORRIBLE women, and what these lads do to them."
He then paused, and said...
"Mind you, I was driving through MOTHERWELL at the time."

That sounds about right Ian
