    We have jokes over here about that. How every famous Scottish person left Scotland before becoming famous. Either way who wants a post card!!

    I come from Scotland and its horrible, well Glasgow and Edinburgh are nice.

    But either way Southamptom arent the biggest of big so visit some surounding cities whilst there you'll enjoy it.

    I am thinking about seeing stonehenge. I visited Great Britain back in 2001 and got to see all the sights. Now I am just here for relaxing and hanging with friends.

    Haha maybe its different down south, actually its usually warmer down your end. I havent been down in ages though was thinking of moving down actually but healths in the way.

    London was really hot when i was down a few years back though. Scotlands always miserable and shit:D

    That I do :p
    Lol it's the people you meet on the internet that think we run about the hills with our longswords and battleaxes fighting over castles or something. Or those who think Scotland is a town at the top England...:rolleyes:

    Who? Actors such as Connery and McGregor? Well thats understandable, their job is either in hollywood or different parts all over the world, obviously can't stay in Scotland their whole life, nothing would get done.
    I could name a hell of a lot of "famous" (I say it in quotes because they probably arn't what most people would define as famous nowadays) people who didn't leave at all...:rolleyes:

    What you on about? Scotland is ace. I've been to quite a few countries and none can even compare to Scotland in a number of different ways. The weather has it's ups and downs, but has a bloody good balance compared with the rest of the world. It's not just me being patriotic or something, there are reasons behind it, I just can't be arsed going into it much here, I have better things to do with life.

    London was poor when I went there. People rushing about, mostly arogant pricks, no care for anyone else, very expensive place, I could go on...:rolleyes: guess the weather was okay :/
    Note: I don't have anything agains't Londoners, just the majority of the ones who were in the vacinity of me while I was there.

    Scotland isn't "miserable and shit" at all, the weather has been up and down this week, nothing too bad at all. You obviously just don't know how to have a good time :/

    Don't forget an adapeter. Otherwise you won't be able to use your electronics or recharge them with our plugs

    Get an english sim card for your phone to save on costs while calling in the UK, they dont cost much and you can even ask you friends in england to sign upto the free offers to get them in (I have a link that gets me 25p per sim everytime someone asks for them but I wont post it here, probably against TOS, just search for free O2 Sims, they do good pay as you go top up promotions :)

    twistedspikes come to Dundee and tell me Scotlands fun.

    I said Glasgow and Edinburgh are good as theres numerous things you can do for fun.

    But Dundee is really crap
