They were brought over to the UK way back when the Romans invaded. I think they got them from the Asians or Africans.

In 1603, James VI King of Scots inherited the throne of the Kingdom of England, and became King James I of England, and left Edinburgh for London.

The Glorious Revolution of 1688-89 saw the overthrow of the King James by William and Mary. As late as the 1690s, Scotland experienced famine which reduced the population of parts of the country by at least 20 percent.

MEAN IT! Communications comes before sex for a successful relationship. Silence is not always golden!

The official state anthem of the United Kingdom is 'God save the King' (words altered to Queen when there is a Queen Regnant).
