Scotsmen aren't  English and wouldn't want to be.

Nowadays they have it both ways .... one of them is the British Prime 
Minister but they have their own Parliament too which makes better laws.

Jazz content, none though they do have some  festivals in lovely places like 
Kirkudbright (pr Kerkoobree) where we shall be working with Harlem in June.
