    I've been called a lot worse.... (by you actually in our late night chats :p)

    But, one thing is true - Scotland is grim. The people over the years have spent so long hating everything English that they have let their cities fall into absolute disrepair, have one of the highest poverty rates on the British Isles, Highest drink/death rate and highest drug rate, lowest education rate and its always freezing. Ok I admit, there is the odd nice mountain and a bit of history but Scotland imo ranks as one of the worst countries on the planet.

    I am sorry for you, with your attitude you will go far.
    I think you have not travelled before making such silly statements.
    Have you ever been to Scotland, me thinks not.
    Firstly the SCOTS invented,
    Tar Mcadam road covering.
    The Macintosh rain coat
    TV.
    Telephone
    Golf
    Pneumatic Tyre
    Penecillin
    Golf
    The percussion cap system
    And the best legal system which most civilised countries (even England) have adopted.
    To name but a few things, that were not invented by drunken stupid drug takers, but by learned clever academics.

    The only thing that most people in the world hate about the English, it their arragant, biggoted, inward looking, we are better than you attitude.

  • I am planning to visit Scotland at some point, preferably in High Summer but also in Winter, me needing to be thoroughly prepared of course.
