One of my sisters mentioned a recent conversation she had with her son-inlaw, a Southener, who drives weekly in his homeland and he claims that he cannot return there to live as he could not afford the cost. He dreads a no vote in the coming referendum as he reckons Westminster will put the boot in and reduce us to the level of his not so beloved homeland. His is a view shared by many of my English friends living here. For bile and racist comments T.B. should read the forums attached to any article on Scotland printed in the English press, these I now no longer read but I am sure J. McL. can confirm that if they were refering to any other ethnic group the race relations board would find themselves working overtime.
