Is Mr Kenneth Gram an employee of the Royal Bank of Scotland London office?
The Royal Bank of Scotland employs many people and it's difficult to say whether someone with that name is employed there. The best and only sure way of finding out is to contact the bank at it's London address and ask.
If you've recieved an email or letter about money, then it's a scam. The name Kenneth Gram pops up on all sorts of scam emails, including unclaimed lotto wins, money transfers and the classic Nigerian Bank money laundering scams.
Remember these golden rules:
- Your bank will never, ever email you about your account.
- Your bank will never, ever email you asking for account information (including passwords)
- If you don't have an account with the bank that has supposedly sent you an email, then it's a scam.
- If it's someone claiming to be bank employee, and is offering to transfer money out of a country and asking your help - it's not just a scam, it's a serious criminal offense. They'll get away with the money - you'll end up in jail.
The easiest way to protect yourself is to contact the bank in question and ask them directly. You will get CORRECT information.

Should Scotland break free from England?
Scotland is not controlled by England as such. England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland together form what is known as the United Kingdom. No one part owns any of the other parts. It would be a case of Scotland leaving the United Kingdom, not leaving England. As to whether they do that is a decision for the people of Scotland. Some say Scotland should leave the United Kingdom and others say they should not.

How long to drive from Hampshire England to tiree Scotland?
12 hours or slightly more. Tiree is an ISLAND many miles from the coast of Scotland. It has no direct ferry route to the mainland. So from Tiree you have to go to the island of Coll then by another ferry to the mainland. Thus the answer to the question should be: 12 hours from Hampshire to the wesrtern Scottish coast, if you are lucky with the traffic (it once took me 13 hours for a shorter journey from southern England to southern Scotland), then however long the two ferries would take. Allow one day for the main car journey and several hours each for the ferries - assuming they run at mutually convenient times! Check the availability of the ferries before setting out on rthe car journey, the ferries may not run every day of the week.
