Hey Gregcamp66,

Did you know one can purchase Irn Bru in Saudi!
It's brewed in Russia you say?
There must be 1 Scot there to bless the production line surely?
I mean, is that allowed?

Ahh well, at least the 100's of Ex-Nuclear Physicists are able to stay in employment I suppose, tending to such a fine art.

An interesting thing I noticed yesterday, as I was exploring New York, was a number of Saltires at "Ground Zero". Appears we get everywhere.

I think there are more American tourists than English in Edinburgh. Lovely city, though. I was walking through a graveyard there and ran across the grave of Adam Smith. It was kind of tucked away in a corner, hardly noticable. A humble sendaway for the proclaimed father of capitalism. Edinburgh Castle is epic.

Glasgow kinda scared me, though. My favorite Scottish city is North Berwick, a cozy little town with few tourists but near some beautiful coastline and close enough to Edinburgh for a weekend out. The highlands are OK but the midgies eat you alive.

Most things you might want to know about Scotland from the University of Edinburgh Geography Department.

For any would be tourists, Glasgow is a sooo much better than snobby Edinburgh, Edinburgh may look better but Glasgow has a lot more feelings and a superb nightlife, Sauchiehall Street, outstanding

cheers for all the replies guys

"I think there are more American tourists than English in Edinburgh."

Yes but the point is that tourists leave. The white settlers from England stay.

Well, go play outside with your friends. You know all work and no play makes Sunaru a dull muppet.
