Advice from Old People
Sometimes, just sometimes, old people say something worth listening to. Ok, so it's like picking the needle out of a whole haystack of mis-remembered war stories, but those gems should be celebrated.
Tell us something worthwhile an old-type person has told you.
Note, we're leaving the definition of old up to you, you smooth-skinned youngsters.

Edinburgers (is that a word) get a reputation for snobbishness and meanness, unlike the Glaswegians, who are reputed to be homely.
In fact, the Edinburgh folk are fine and Glaswegians are just a bit rougher round the edges. But Edinburgh's full of tourists in summer. The population virtually doubles, and you can't get moving during festival time.
So in that respect, yes it is like the south of England. Only less warm.
