as I said in teh last thread
I was indoctrinated into disliking England when I was a wean. Even now, with an English mother and a cut-glass English accent, I can't identify myself as English, and I won't actively support English sports teams.
It really is a good example of how these things get ingrained in you. saying that, every Scottish person in my family has married an English person, so they can't be all that bad.

That's surely more than you are Russian?

was never indoctrinated. I have no probs with English folk, most of whom are lovely.
I maintain, however, that nobody born in Scotland is named Nigel, unless they have English parents.
