It's the Engrish (sic) that don't want to give it to us, though the article probably put forward a few good reasons why not.<BR/><BR/>If you really wanted to get picky/fussy, you could say the Scots/English love/hate relationship is almost racist. We hate them for what they did to us in past millenia and with them being right on our doorstep it's not something we'll get over easily, or will easily be forgiven. After all, the Scots are probably THE most patriotic people you'll ever come across at a national level.<BR/><BR/>On the football field, however, it's a different story...just like the Auld Firm (Rangers/Celtic) clashes every season, where all of a sudden nationalism goes out the window and it's blue versus green, Scot against Scot.<BR/><BR/>We're a complex lot for such a small nation, but one of the most fuckin' lovable. :-)<BR/><BR/>Word Verification is "nlgiwdk"...don't worry, I don't know what the fuck it stands for either.Divemaster GranDadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15069805528772830844noreply@blogger.com
