unfortunately he has had a drug problem throughout his adult life, but is now in recovery after attending his brothers clinic, and continues to write, still looking for work, like most people in the industry from the same era, he struggles to find work, which is a shame, because he is incredibly talented.

What do people from Scotland call themselves?

Scots, Scottish, People. The usual. Although there is also the "ken billy" banter which involves a lot more exact placement of your location of birth/where you're living now. So you could be Glaswegian, Aberdonian, Highlander, etc. Just the same as anywhere else.

Why does England hold a grudge over Scotland?

Right, I'm English. It's not my experience, and I have lived in Scotland & been to Wales many times, to say the Welsh & Scots hate the English. Sure, some do. But to be frank with you, most of the people I have met in Wales like us, they love to beat us at rugby, they love to play us at rugby. We are still waiting for the Jocks to repair our goal posts ! But that is rivalry, that is about being neighbours, that is about being competitive. Hatred is very, very different to that. I wont say which , but there are a couple of regionalities in England I cannot stand, I don't hate them, but I do dislike certain types of accent: I love the Scots accent (See that Billy Connolly, he's a stotter !) I love the lilt of the Welsh, especially from the southern valleys, isn't it... Nah, it's not true. We English have our faults, certainly, but what characterises us most is that we will, up to a point, get on with most folk. I'm not even suggesting we are better at it than anyone else, but as I say I don't feel hated by either the Taffs or the Jocks (One of my best friends is from Glasgow) or the Paddies for that matter. Say what you like, ask whatever you feel you should, but don't tell me the Scots & Welsh hate me because of my nationality. There's a one word answer which rhymes with Rowlocks. I am welsh and lived in Scotland and we don't hate the English. We just hate the cocky loud mouth (rhymes with) Tuggers that mostly come out of England and take the (rhymes with) wiss out of the welsh and their accents and (rhymes with) pit. Also the ones who embarrass everyone from Britain on holiday. That's all.
