Neice No 1 came to us last night having been reading about her favourite soaps on a soap chat site. Why is it, she asked, some people list their homes as being "bonnie Scotland" but ignore England? She pointed out a small example of this regarding the location of the ITV1 soap Coronation Street - a "Bonnie Scotlander" lists it as being in "UK/Europe/The World".
It's a small example of a much wider problem. Perhaps it's more surprising when Scots living in Scotland do it, but it's actually far more prevelant in England itself!
England - the land that people ignore... but at least one person on the thread seemed aware of the old homeland...
