    I love to go too, And I'm sure I'll have the opportunity one day.

    Scottish people are more layed back than us Brits, are more humorous too but less attractive and their accent does not help.

    Hello we are still Brits too, we haven't had devolution yet (hopefully never!).

    Come to closing time in middle of Glasgow and you will see how laid back we are.:o Oh and you will see some bonnie lasses too who are as equal to if not better looking than girls you will see in London.

    I agree the men are glaikit though :D

    There was a girl in my primary school class who had ginger hair and freckles but I don't remember seeing many others, maybe one or two. Maybe a lot of giner people dye their hair so we don't know their natural hair colour? I don't know.

    My Dutch son in law's was fascinated on his first trip here to see so many gingers. Apparently it is to do with the lack of sun and it is true there are more red heads here

    Try living in Peterhead, Fraserburgh, Buchan area. The language is Doric and that's difficult to understand.

    I've lived up here for nearly three years but I still find that I have to concentrate really bloody hard to understand the folk that talk pure Orcadian. Then again, I'm from Ayr and I often get asked whereabouts in Canada I'm from! :confused:

    Who are these Scotch people you talk of, Scotch is a drink, whisky.

    And a broth, a pie and also a variety of chili pepper.

    Love the pies btw :)
