There
is nobody in Scotland called Nigel.

If you can patronise me, then expect the same back. As it happens, I quite like the many English folk with whom I work and play. I give not one single fuck whether you like Scots.

Nigel is also Aussie slang for someone with no mates.

Hmm
I know nobody called Nigel.

I wasn't patronising
I think of it as a term of endearment

OK
I apologise. In my defence, there are no terms of endearment in Scotland. There is a certain inflection to the upward grunt, however. It is never, ever referred to as "Nigel."

Kind regards.

Only
in Glasgow. It's a vital part of foreplay. They can't spell fud.

I know a Scotsman called Nigel. But he now lives in Brighton.
Does that help?
