I am sickened by your post.............. How could you have forgotten about a special mention for Runrig, Ewan McGregor, Billy Connolly, the best malts in the world, the outstanding scenery, the beautiful castles and Celtic Connections....
Actually, all kidding aside; all of the above plus your own reasons are the things I am proud of to be fair.
