*You* are the one who likes to stress that you're a *Lowland* Scot, not

a

Highlander, and a casual look through Google for your views on

Braveheart

(for example) will find repeated indignant assertions from your own self that they (the Lowlanders) weren't Celts.

Jette Goldie
As a Lowland Scot I can say that our ancestors were Celts - just not *Irish Celts* - they had more in common with the Welsh and Cornish, as can be seen still in some of the place names.

I'm not disputing your own views - I'm saying that MSR has always had a bee in his bonnet about asserting the reverse.

cheers, David
