It is Scottish and refers to the devils of Baldarroch who beat on the rooftops of farmhouses in Aberdeenshire. For one of the answers above me Erse is Scottish Gaelic. Please check your facts before you start a rant! I`ll stand by my answer and you stand by yours. If someone reported you it wasn`t me! I wouldn`t be so petty. In the grand scheme of things how much do these answers really mean?

AAARRGHH!! Hamish McHamish, it is IRISH Gaelic, so check YOUR facts. I don't care what you say. My granny from County Cork speaks Erse and I have loads of friends and relatives from the Highlands - they speak Gaelic. The very name for 'Irish' in Scots Gaelic IS Erse. I don't need Canucks who have taken a cursory glance at Dictionary.com or Wikipedia to tell me the language of my fellow countrymen. Especially when you call yourself Hamish and then have a female avatar! Beg for forgiveness and I shall let you live...
P.S.
Nice try at getting be censored, but realise this, it is impossible to beat me and my answer WILL appear regardless how much you cry.
