Scottish is . . .

Well it's T in the Park this weekend so it's kind of difficult to escape all things Scottish. It's all over radio, TV and newspapers. I live quite near Balado, it's near where I grew up but despite being musical, I have never been to TITP. As it's held in July I have usually been working with the band at a wedding.

Not this year though! No, as of today I am off to the sunny Czech Republic for some family time with my Dad, his wife and my little brother Danny (who is only 3 weeks older than JC).

I was listening to Radio 1 the other day when I heard their advertisement for TITP and I have to say I actually sat in my car to listen to the end of it. It gave me goosebumps. I am fiercely patriotic but not in a dislike 'The English' like some numptys but in a 'I love where I come from but can accept we are not perfect' kind of way. I am not even a 'we need independence' kind of person either. I really don't care if we are part of the UK or not. I have and always will consider England and Scotland to be separate countries in terms of language and culture but if we are made stronger by uniting together then I don't see what the harm is in that?

Anyway, I ramble. If you want to watch this fabulous advert for TITP you can see it here . . .

For me Scottish is getting an overnight bus to London, not bringing a coat and being the last to leave CyberMummy! 

I will leave you now to ask yourselves what makes you feel Scottish/English/Irish/Welsh or for my foreign visitors American/Canadian/Australian/Czech on so on.
