Scottish national identity

I don't know what's brought this on. I haven't been like this to you. If you're going to try and make fun of me, at least be funny.

Well if I thought my jest would hurt your feelings I would not have made it. Sorry. The imagined intimacy of these forums make some of us take the kind of liberties we take with our friends.. I don't know you, but I like you -- or who I imagine you to be --- and have no wish to make you feel bad. I expect I'll be hearing from Raingeanah and Polwarth soon too.

Thanks P. Your wink is as good as a gold star. My exuberance gets the better of me at times. I mean no harm usually and I've kidded SR on in the past about his penchant for the dreich and got away with it.

Personally, I think it's borderline hilarious for SR to respond as he did to a post that fingered the sovereign Scottish characteristic as 'the readiness to take offence.' I don't think he will see the joke just yet, but I hope he will forgive me in time. Orra B
