OK Dave, take a look at Spain...if you need a mirror.

"We" are the people who live and work here, who have grown up surrounded by Scottish culture....who understand and cherish what it means to be a Scot in word a deed.

You and I, Ian, move in very different circles, I do not have the luxury of the "holiday lifestyle" ...nor wish for it.
I spend most of my time in reality, except for small excursions into Mudcatland. :0)

I am on first name terms with hundreds of people all over South Argyll...I knew their parents and sometimes their grandparents.
I am trusted implicitly.   I am proud of my place in our society.

You stick to your chosen lifestyle and I will stick to mine, but you learn little of life or culture from "casual aquaintaces"
