So predictable. Rather than comment on the real issue you pick up on the tiniest detail just for the sake of it.
Silly of me to suggest that modern animosity - faux or otherwise - between the Scots and the English could in any way originate from battles such as Bannockburn or Culloden, or folk heroes such as Robert the Bruce, Rob Roy and Bonnie Prince Charlie.
