What's the biggest surprise about being a Scot so far???

Mark B.asked the above

WALKING!  Long ago I would do it for hours without thinking.  Now the slightest slope is a hill. Being in the city, there are lots of cars around (parked most of the time), you know the usual European models, small Fords and ones called Vauxall and Skoda, but people walk, anytime of the day or night.


 

We could begin to solve several U.S. problems- obesity, health services, and the national debt by increasing the price of petrol.  The price of gasoline here is twice as much + 10% compared to current U.S. prices.  Use those new taxes ...wait! this is fucking socialism...what am I saying.

Never mind.
