I think age is terribly overrated. You're okay as long as you don't grow up. By all means grow old, but don't mature. Remain childlike, retain wonder, the ability to be flabbergasted by something.

As soon as I got successful, the Scottish press started picking on me. It's something they reserve just for me.

Don't work out, work in.

What is it with McDonald's staff who pretend they don't understand you unless you insert the 'Mc' before the item you're ordering? It has to be a McChicken burger...a chicken burger gets blank looks. Well, I'll have a McStraw and jam it into your McEyes, you f**cking McTosser!

Once you become successful, people know where you live, the type of house you live in, the kind of car you drive, the clothes you wear, and so it would be patronising to go and talk like a welder. Welding's a mystery to me now. You can't go back, your life changes every day.

Life is supposed to be fun. It's not a job or occupation. We're here only once and we should have a bit of a laugh.

Never trust a man, who when left alone with a tea cosey... Doesn't try it on.
