Re: Guys do me a favour please
Well...
The sequence at the beginning is EXACTLY like the centre of Glasgow. The women don't dress quite like that, though. More plaid, less Argyle.
It didn't have anybody being sick on the pavement, or being pushed through a plate-glass window.
And it couldn't possibly show you the chill winds that knock you over when you walk unsuspecting around the corners in Edinburgh in winter.
It's actually nicer than that.

Well...I like the real Proclaimers, and if you don't look, those two guys didn't sound too bad.
All this stuff is, ya know, Up With People with a "cultural" flair.
Kind of like dress up United Nations dolls with music.

Bwa-ha-ha-ha! At last Celtic Women take a turn at trashing Scotland instead of Ireland. Serves yis right!
Relax! We know that it's really like this.
And of course, it's not really Scottish unless it has lots n lots o' accordian.
