That is funny. When I went to Scotland I had no issue understanding them, even from the various parts of Scotland. But I understand what you mean. One morning there were some Germans during breakfast who just didn't understand the patron. It was hilarious, especially because I understood what both sides were saying. After about five minutes I decided to help them out, as I was feeling sorry for both sides.
