Hockey - wimps version of the celtic game shinty and it was a game in England for a veeeeery long time.

Penicilin - A nice scottish man called Mr Flemming discovered and developed what we now know as penicilin.

Smarties - How dare you imply my favourite sweetie is a colonial invention!

I'm all for people being proud of their birthplace ( or any place they feel like, actually ) but braggarts are boorish and should be limited to audiences of one and a mirror. Other than that, 10/10 for enthusiasm!
