And hey..what is this between English and Scottish people? Do you hate each other's guts, like us Indians and Pakistanis? Or is it just some ribbing, all taken in good humour? And is it three way/ four way involvng the irish and/or welsh?

As a Scotsman, the only way I can describe us and the English is that we are half joking but wholly serious when it comes to hating one another. It's down to our history and many battles against each other, as the English tried to take us over. But it's all water under the bridge now, and the argument is more a "my dad's better than yours" kinda thing. Oh, and the Welsh and the Irish are in on it, too.
It's kinda like this:
We (The Scots), hate the English. They (The English), hate us. Ireland hates the English. Wales hates the English. Most of the English hate the rest of the English.
So, you can clearly see who the common denominator is lol

i'm English and i love the Scots! want to be one myself, ever since i started watching doctor who and their was a Scottish character called Jamie as one of the companions from the 1960s, (the patrick troughton years, also my favourite doctor of all time!) and Jamie was very Scottish indeed. kilt and all! and i think Scotland is a beautiful country, much more beautiful than wales, and no i dont hate the welsh, i just dont like any of the welsh that arent from north wales because by the seaside they tend to be elderly and simply lovely to know! not a tracksuit family in sight! and the seaside and mountains are beautiful! i just dont like the well "developed" parts of wales, the seaside dosent count as developed because the beach is so natural and all that is man made is beautiful around there, theres a lovely shop i like to go to where they sell some lovely plates with pictures of wales on it, and i love to save my money and buy some ^^ ok so i guess i love Scotland, wales and england, well, i kinda like england, i like the town i live in because its an old english country town and is beautiful! its bridgnorth, i love takein the cliff rail way up to high town to go to the market, and i love london to, only for the art of it though, i think all the buildings and land marks makes you proud to be british! but northern ireland, i cant really judge because i have never been there before
(oh god, look at how i have babbled on about utter crap! well, it killed some time)

The Cornish are a bunch of Celtic n'er-do-wells who are pissed off that Atlantis exists just off their coast and yet they are only famous for their horrible pasties and burning strangers in wicker men (and those two things are related, if you get my drift). I'm sure Joxer will reply after he's finished luring a Korean ship onto rocks so that he can get a new kitchen appliance and/or DVD player.

============================================================================================= That Nivea cream is awfully close to the computer, so I'm assuming its usage is for the dry skin the glare of the monitor creates on your face correct? ;-) ====================================
OMG who uses Nivea on their face? You'd be better off bobbing for apples in a cement truck.
In spite of my German Roots, I don't see how anyone can possibly use Nivea on any part of their body. It has the consistency of cream cheese and it leaves a 3-centimeter-thick greasy film on your skin that won't wash off for days. Same with Penaten-Creme. =========================================== reply: goosefat dear,have i not taught you anything :-D
Hahahah. I'll leave that to the good ol' teddy bear.
