Are there a disproportionate amount of Scots on MN?

[charliesp]

AIBU in thinking there is a disproportionately large amount of Scots on MN? Before I continue, there is absolutely nothing 'wrong' with this, just an observation.

I very often see on the "what are you doing today" threads posted on a Sunday that they are going to the supermarket at 9am... where England and Wales don't have extended Sunday trading hours. Or lots of "I'll be voting SNP at the general election".

Anyone else noticed this? I wonder what the percentage of active users are English, Welsh, Irish, Scottish, and others?

My gran lived in Saltcoats

Nothing like a summer’s day in Saltcoats in the rain. ☔️ 🌧

She used to have a hut in the back garden and would have sand and shells collected from the beach and we spent hours playing with it.

My partner is from Saltcoats

Anyone got tickets for Elfingrove and seen the awful reviews?

@Floralmoral - me too. Midlothian is so wee I'm always waiting to be outed. I was once!

Nae'bdy here fae Perth?

weebarra I’m pretty sure I’ve found two of my colleagues on MN and quite possibly they recognised me too. But MN is like fight club - you do not talk about MN

My mum used to say "Teenie frae Troon looking for Saltcoats".

I never had a clue what she meant

Waves from East Lothian! Born in the Western General near Seafield. It's demolished now. Also just wanting to try out the emoji

I’ve heard Teenie frae Troon from my late mum. Can’t imagine what the Saltcoats part meant.

emummy how cool is that , i want a rope bridge for the squirrels

I was lucky enough to be born in Thornyflat cottage hospital in the town of" Ayr, wham ne'er a town surpasses, for honest men and bonnie lasses"

I'm not just from Scotland. I'm from Govan. Rab C Nesbitt's birth place

@Wantarefund yes, me ;(

Not even embarrassing myself by trying to sell them. Just leaving them unused. GlasGlow was good so I had very high expectations. Shame so many people have been let down

@LemonadePockets I wonder if Itison will address it at all. I’ve advertised mine because I could really do with recouping the money but I highly doubt I’ll be able to sell them. Not a happy bunny.

@wantarefund

I bought mine off a friend. Only £15 so I'm quite fortunate it's not much lost. I'm keen to see if they address it or make any improvements. I really did think it was going to be a really Christmassy event. The videos looked fab but of course, they show nothing of the inside. So many people furious about paying so much for a walk round the museum in the dark when they can go for free with lights on during the day!

I'm a blow in too, been here 19 years now, a wee town on the Clyde, the one with the Waitrose
Dd was bro I the Vale, just moved to the Southside this year now she's 18, I hope to follow next year, though exact area unknown, Govan is scoring fairly highly, although West end would be amazing it's unlikely.

We have tickets for Elfingrove but we're near the end of the run. Fingers crossed they might make improvements or sneaking into the museum at night will be magical enough for the DC.

This thread is half full.
