    A heroic, if not harrowing account account from the centre of the tsunami devastation : Scotsman

    Rather amusing reaction from the Royal Bank of Scotland when he contacted them for money to fly back to Scotland - they were on holiday....lol For those who do not know, the Scottish have a reputation for, how shall one put it, being careful with their money.

    HS:That would be generally lowland Scots, as most English never venture much further North than Carlisle, to experience true Highland hospitality!

    Will we rule the world? Naww, let some other poor b*gger have the heartache. Our hearts are in Scotland, and cry "Freedom!".

    LT,

    To be honest, I have travelled extensively in Scotland and have always found that the Scots reputation for meanness to be highly exaggerated.

    Now Yorkshiremen....that is another story altogether.....lol Rub two Yorkshiremen together and they will charge you for the fire.
