I've never lived in Scotland, LL, but always enjoy Edinburgh (been a few years tho) and pipe bands. They used to say the Scots regiments were still "living in the 1950s" in their... culture. Don't know if that's still true, maybe the 1970s?
LSP, it's probably fair to say that they still live by the old values and maintain their traditions. To some, that may be a negative, to me, that's how honourable men should live.

I used to live there. I never tire of pipe bands.
Goes to show real people not filled with self-loathing appreciate traditions.
Remember what happened to the would-be Jihadi at Glasgow airport. Some things never change and life is all the better for it
