You're right, though, Scotland is NOT in Northern England. However there are places in England called Scotland, in Leicestershire, Lincolnshire, Berkshire, Devon and Dorset! (That's Midlands, South and South-West England!!)

Unless of course they meant Scotland as in "stop yer tickling Jock" in which case they are well out of order! Not only have the Europeans cancelled my next year's holiday in Wales, now the Americans are kicking Mrs Oldgit's cousins / aunts / uncles into the sea!

Sheesh!
