    Too touristy. Head west coast. Avoid Ben Nevis unless you want to see a fat lass from stoke walking her dogs while eating crisps "climbing the highest mountain" on the way to a heart attack.

    As someone said earlier the rural spots are the best. Less twats. And I'm scottish! Try crinan, applecross, glencoe for starters.

                Aye, we have not tried to burn you lot out yet.

                    Of course. Go to Edinburgh castle, and say a Scottish bloke from a pub in the city said so...
