Well pals,first of all i hope you don't mind if i write in Standard English but i wouldn't want to be"misunderstood."

I noticed on the "Where are you" thread, that very few of you are from Scotland or Ireland yet there seems to be a great interest,not only here but on the net in general,in all things pertaining to both countries.Maybe you could tell me why this should be so.Is it the music,the history or the funny way we speak.Maybe,as katlaughing said to me,that you were Scots or Irish in a past life.

Try to enlighten me on the subject please. LJC.
