To believe that a very high % of mumsnetters are Scottish

[greedygal]

I get this impression and have no idea why - is this my imagination or is this the case?

Where are you originally from?

I am thoroughly English.

Scottish in England

Scottish lassie here too. And a quine an' a! Not pished, but only cos of meds!!

English, but North enough to say wee/aye/bairns etc

I eat a lot of mince and tatties

It's shite being Scottish

Scottish here too

Weegie at heart man :)
Until we moved up north to Inverness

Aye

Scottish and PROUD

so how come we all got scottish relatives?

No, I don't have a problem with that : ) I love that you Scots don't seem to take yourselves too seriously. Im hoping to hone that skill.

TinyPawz - seems like you and me are in the minority

I have a theory it's cos we're quite straight talking and don't do 'oh hello sweetie mwah' irl and so avoid places like nethuns and gravitate here where we can swear and drink and chat.

I was havin it oot wi someone about something,when she exclaimed I don't understand yiu,your unintelligible,speak English
That was a rammy as she proceeded to dismiss all things Scottish dialect
Flushed oot all the scots though

Scottish

Scottish, living in England.

but, honestly most people i know i have scottish family somewhere??

Well I think of myself as British and Scottish - but for your population analysis I am Scottish and live in Scotland. But I doubt MumsnetHQ would come out with a regional analysis of membership

Scottish here.

And like Spurtle a wee bitty pished!

might be hiding them in the attic but somewhere !

they wouldn't in case they upset the status quo

got to love their three chord songs though come on

An English woman on a secondment thought the time reference "the back of..." was very peculiar. I hadn't even noticed that anyone in the UK said anything different!

Aye ah'm ur tae

That was at work...

Alice, are you in vodka land right now? You seem keen to join in, if not in fact actually Scottish.

I thought the majority were London and South East? Amazed at the number of scots on this thread!

I'm English, btw. Not south eastern.
