Slightly cringey question about foreign [EU] accents in Scotland

[Dutchwithflowers]

I am from the Netherlands originally. Although I have lived in England for over 15 years I have not been able to, and probably will never, loose my native accent.

Dp and I are considering a move to Scotland, probably Glasgow, Edinburgh or St Andrews. People here in England have made comments about my accent in the past and I must say I am getting a bit self-conscious about it.

My question is how easy is it to adapt to local accents in the places I have listed, at least to a degree, and how tolerant are the Scots in general about foreign accents. I speak very fluently it's just that you can detect I am one of those from the EU and therefore not terribly popular here at the moment.

I appreciate it is a bit of a silly question but any thoughts would be much appreciated.

12th July and the weekend surrounding it are always pretty miserable to be fair. My DP is ex army and a Celtic fan (we're well aware the two don't usually go together) and when he sees rangers fans using the poppy and the fallen to score points it utterly enrages him!

The reason it's still mentioned is that's when the massive orange walks happen, literally bands from all over the world (mostly Ireland and west of Scotland) come, there are literally 100,000 if not more people.

LOL I couldn't even get the date right - shows how much I know about it!! I used to see Orange walks on TV and tbh don't even know if they're Protestants or catholics.

I may live in a dump with attitudes in the Dark Ages but at least we don't have sectarianism. I guess every place has its advantages and disadvantages

Orange are Protestants, the others are Catholics. Thankfully on a day to day basis it doesn't come into things, although I did get a shitty comment when DS2 was tiny about him being a "fenian bastard" because of his name but there's always one twat wherever you live. My best pal is a Rangers fan, there's plenty banter but no ill feeling. I wouldn't let the kids wear their strips unless going to a game though.

Sorry OP, realised I'm not painting Scotland in the best light here. It honestly is a lovely place to live, it has its issues like any other country, but generally it's lovely

I'm English and have lived in Scotland for more than 20 years. Haven't lost my accent, but gained many good Scottish words and phrases.
I've never had experienced any anti English sentiments in the areas I've lived: Glasgow, Stirling and Edinburgh.
In my current workplace we have many EU and non-EU colleagues and the only thing that matters is whether they can do their job.
There's occasional English v Scots banter during sporting events, but also French v Belgian
