I have visited the Northern Part of the UK on many occasions over the last 50 years or so Brydo, up as far as Inverness, both for pleasure and for work , and I have always found the people exceptionally hospitable, the food terrific, the scenery really beautiful, and the weather mainly dreadful.
This is one very good reason why I oppose Independence for Scotland, it would be like losing a brother- we are a family, better together than apart.
