    So the Scots and the Welsh have nothing in common? Nothing? They could have put "extra rain" in that section. Or castles.

    I think they should take Sean Connery out of the Scotland part because he hasn't lived there for ages! It is a bit irritating when someone is very "Scottish" in their outlook, yet chooses to live somewhere else. What does that say?
    I think I would substitute him with Andy Murray for the moment, but keep a watch on the situation.
    The chart is very interesting, isn't it. I've never seen it before.
    Blessings, Star

    Iota - yes, castles should have been the thing in common for Scotland and Wales!

    Star - I know what you mean about Sean Connery, but I'm sure a lot of people do think of him as being quintessentially Scottish.

    Beer is apparently at the centre of our universe in the British Isles!

    A Modern Mother - sure go ahead. Thanks for linking back here :-)
