Doesn't fit

OK so if the Jocks vote yes (even they can't be that...... - but what if they do) which forum do questions about Scottish holidays go in. If it's not overseas and it's not UK do we need a new section?

    Surely it won't be a problem will it? Do people actually holiday there? :beer:

    You sound as if you are blaming Scotland for giving your mum pneumonia ????




    And to the other poster, I have had some fabulous holidays in Scotland. I love the passion that people have for their country, no matter where they live.
    make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
    and we will never, ever return.

    Lighten up... The smiley next to my reply was meant to signify it wS a joke without ill feeling. You could even suggest it was an Englishman and a Scotsman chinking their beers :beer:

    Not BLAMING them exactly (but she didn't have it when she arrived)
    I've never been to Scotland on holiday
    but I did spent a fair time there helping them get the oil from under the sea. I arrived in the 70's (when they were still trying to poking long sticks in the ground to get it out) but I was very pleased to help for just a pittance. :beer:

    They voted no, so the problem is avoided :)
    Everything will be alright in the end so, if it’s not yet alright, it means it’s not yet the end

    Been to Scotland a few times for long weekends and loved it.


    You used to be able to buy Scottish Passports from the last services on the M6 and years ago, I had mine stamped when I went over the Erskine bridge.


    Beautiful country, scenery is stunning.
