I smiled out loud ... the only kilt wearers I saw in Scotland were at tourist 'hot-spots'.

I am interested in this topic for all the reasons already mentioned but held back joining in the debate as I am a south-of-Watford-southerner who just happens to be a bit passionate about conserving our natural landscapes. I remember hearing on the news that a small landowner was refusing to sell to Donald Trump and the whole scheme was in jeopardy because of him - I lost sight of the story after that. I guess the landowner must have been coerced in some way.

I just hate what people like Donald Trump stand for - that is if you are rich enough everything has a price. Don't know much about the SNP and have joined a Facebook campaign called "Bet I can find a million people who don't want Cameron as the next PM". Reading through the comments it is a timely reminder that Cameron is a Very Rich Man indeed and perhaps poor old Gordon is really the good guy after all.

Oops, way off topic, sorry Eds.

The whole Trump thing is all that's bad about "tourism" - Multinationals, little or no local trickle down economics (all the profits going off shore), targeted at the rich, etc, etc, etc.....

Don't feel restricted in commenting for not being Scots, coming from Clydebank (West Coast, lowland Scotland) is just as far away culturally from Aberdeen as "Down South" :-)

North East of Scotland "Fit Like, Ken!" - they have sub-titles up for other Scots when they have a fisherman from the East coast on TV :-)
