Or Milngavie

Ah... four decades ago, a Glaswegian colleague explained to me that the pronunciation of Milngavie was the utterly infallible test of class in Scots society. All very The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie.

 

It's like living in Wiltshire, and hearing people from Cambridgeshire trying to pronounce "Mildenhall".

(It's "Minal", by the way.)

The Wiltshire one, yes.  The Suffolk one, no.
