About three years ago, I was in Europe and part of a group which

contained two Englishmen talking about English-Scots relations.

I don't have the time to go into all the details now,

but from what I heard, (and not only from these two)

there does seem to be some bad blood between the two

One Englishman, an older man who worked

for the European Union complained to the other: "You know,

I like Scotland, I have cousins in Scotland, but every time I

go over there, I get nothing but abuse"!

They then went on to discuss the question of Scots Independence

concluded that if they were, in their words "acting like children"

they should be treated like children"....They did seem quite patronizing,

concluding also, that "They don't want to work",

a traditional, seemingly universal accusation one hears

all over the world from people putting down others, whom they don't like

for various reasons, lol.

It was all quite interesting.
