I'm not scottish, I've never been to Scotland (unfortunately, because I like the country), but I know what guys traditionally wear underneath their kilts...does that count? :D
(and I like David Coulthard, especially in a kilt!)

Holly,having many countries around you is nice, (have just made a trip to the Netherlands yesterday :) ), but that's nothing compared to Australian weather, I think...we're supposed to have summer weather now, but it's only 13° C, and it's been raining for a week. would you really wanna change?

It's the same thing here in NY. We were having this lovely mix of Spring/Summer warmness and now it's wet and cold and raining and miserable. I definitely need to find myself a way to get to Fiji in the near future.

Still, I think that I would die!!! :crying: *as close to a frozen smilie as I could find!!!* :crying:

I start getting cold when it's about 18 degrees, and am generally freezing when it gets downt to the likes of 13! when it gets to just under 10 at night, I usually think that I'm going to die!!! :o

*Boy, I really am a sook, aren't I???* :lol:

Sorryfor the double post , I forgot to add this...

Azn: to convert Fahrenheit temperature into Celsius...

celsius = (5/9)*(temp - 32)...

so 50 degrees fahrenheit is 10 degrees celsius... :crying: soo cold!!!
