three quarters of whiskey distillerys are foreign owned , not Scottish . Are you going to say whiskey isnae Scottish? Ah, but the major port houses were established and developed by the British. Just as the major distilleries were established by the Scots. Whisky is Scots/Irish, port is British. It's a bit more complex than that. There are forty five active whisky distilleries in England. There are eight active whisky distilleries in Wales. Eight in Canada. Forty four in Japan. One in Pakistan. Six in India. One in South Africa and probably a lot more. Whisky is art. Anyone can make art.

I haven't tried any European port for quite a while monte , with good French cheese , and of course Caledonian crackers . Ive often wondered monte when the Roman Empire came to an end , did the descendants of the citizens of Rome similarly stand navel gazing about empire , and try to culturally misappropriate everything as roman ? They are still doing it. Many of them think pizza is an Italian invention. The Romans did bake bread dough with olive oil and cheese on it but some food historians argue that it was in America that a tomato base was introduced. www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12076531/Pizza-know-invented-America-NOT-Italy-declares-Italian-professor-food-history.html

They can't even pronounce the word tomato.

They can't even pronounce the word tomato. I'm half serious. There is an argument that pizza, as it is known today, was invented in America by Italian immigrants and then taken back to Italy. The Naples tourist board strongly disagree.

Nothing is as it seems. The Hawaiian pizza was actually invented in Canada by a Greek chef.

The Naples tourist board strongly disagree. sorry monte , you are pulling my leg. They sound as bad as you lot and your Bwitish port if that is the case. Wasn't the American contribution to the Italian delicacy of pizza to add pineapple to it and eat it cold ? have you ever seen they you tube and tik tok clips of that couple in America , she's a yank , he's an Italian , and she goes around winding her husband up about Italian food? Can't mind their names , she is like a backward heathen when it comes to cuisine to the Italian guys sophistication. must have been what it was like years ago , when us Scots introduced the poor impoverished Geordies in their English slums to fine French wine , Scottish salmon and single malts , and all the other finery from the tip of Scottish high society lacking among the poor anglo saxon heathens. monte, you have got to be taking the piss.

You dont invent pizza by adding an ingredient centuries after the Italians first invented the original idea. next you will be telling me the curry is English because a Brummie decided to dish up a vindaloo.

Shakespeare isn't easy reading, it's Old English with very odd phrases and grammar. Less odd than the King James Bible, in my opinion, but just as responsible for many everyday expressions and phrases...

"FIRST MURDERER: Where is your husband?
LADY MACDUFF: I hope, in no place so unsanctified Where such as thou mayst find him.
FIRST MURDERER: He's a traitor.
SON: Thou liest, thou shag-ear'd villain!
FIRST MURDERER: What, you egg!
[Stabs him.] Young fry of treachery!
SON: He has kill'd me, Mother. Run away, I pray you!"
Very odd way of speaking.

Very odd way of speaking. wullie was a bullshitter Vinny , but language is always changing. Especially a borrowing language like English , which is half French , part danish , has multiple words in it like bungalow and pyjamas from the Indian sub continent .The word gay in modern English is vastly different in meaning to what it was a mere 70 years ago , so you can imagine the changes that have taken place in your language over centuries since wullie Shakespeares day.
