My Highlander status doesn't preclude my also being a bigyin - so long as
I'm staunin ma haun of course.
I'm eckshully far more at home amongst weegie scum (witness the PFD) as -
despite my poncy accent - I find they are far less bigoted and racist than
Highland scum.
But as I've explained before, whilst I have 'access' to almost every strata
of the British class system I've never been fully accepted by any of them -
praise the Lord.

Adam Whyte-Settlar.
