Christ, still no votes for the Scots...

Maybe it is the inherent warmth which exudes from us Glaswegians...

Or perhaps the aggressive nature of our voices after the libation has taken hold...

Yeah that's a fair description of me...iv'e met a lot of people in that bar though...but i can't really recall meeting too many scots...then again i can't really recall a lot of things i get up too on the juice...probably a good thing really.

The persons nationality is really the last concern I have.. as long as I'm personally having fun at the time.

Based on stereotypes its going to overwhelmingly be a race between Australians and Irish when this whole thing is done.

But I also enjoy drinking with North Americans and South Africans and people from everywhere regardless of nationality. I can't really think of a "best" one.

T.B.,

As you know, I have not even included the 'heavyweights' like the Eastern Europeans with their "Slivovitz", and the glorious good times to be had with the boys in Buenos Aires and Montevideo. Combine that with the ladies of those aforementioned places, and an evening is certainly 'going places'...

As you probably know "Nova Scotia" is supposidly Latin for "New Scotland", which is what King James decided to rename it when he gave it to a Scottish pal of his. Previously the French owned it and called it Acadia.

Today it's just called "The black hole of ambition"

B.W.,

Are you saying that marrying this flower to reside in N.S. would not have been the best policy?!!

bottom line...

don't know enough people to prefer a nationality..

but know a few people to know which ones are good to drink with.
