It isn't really just Scottish, Clare...we find it in Hallowe'en, for example. It's an abbreviation of e(v)en(ing).

it's because it's an abbreviation that it's short, of course, clare...

Good Morning friends, many thanks for your help. Because in the clue it said 'a short Scottish night', I looked it up in a Scottish dictionary - but no luck, I knew my friends at AB would help.


Thank you, have a nice day (its a beautiful morning, the sun is shinning, the birds are singing, and I'm alive and kicking)
