Unfortunately you're probably right enough.Yep, I'd go with the East-West notion - Ayr had probably the most depressing feel but I liked Sterling; Perth was probably my favourite town in the East. I quite enjoyed the Glaswegian's passion and yes, the Edinburgh mentality appears more conservative. I imagine if I were a Scot, on the issue of independence, my heart would say yes and my head no. Ultimately, I'd follow my head.
I'm sure Sterling's a bloody lovely place, but I've never been there myself.

Unfortunately you're probably right enough.Yes, Perth is nice. Stayed there for a year when I was 17 and at college there. When were you up? You weren't in wickes by any chance? Because I might have served you.

Edinburgh's a cool place to be if you're a child of the Enlightenment; I maintain that its place in the western psyche is afforded not nearly enough prominence.

About two years ago, so not long. I remember the missus coming up and complaining how cold it was at the festival. "It's bloody August!" she'd say...

Exactly, they're sent to the areas it's too late to save anyway. It's part of the master plan which will hopefully see the anglo-saxon race dominant once again.

I've lived / worked (sauchiehall street) / married a scottish woman (ex) and as previously posted if they declared independance they could not support the neds and schemies....
