To Scotland with love

Dearest Scotland,

Really, you voted no to your state of independence?

Who do you think you are, Québec?

I know the currency and banking issues were worrisome (100 kippers = 1 haggi, 100 haggis = 1 nessie, 100 nessies = 1 braveheart), as were the new trading agreements to be worked out.

(Possible headline from the year 2020: "Scotland, Iceland, the Faroe Islands, and the Falkland Islands to form the Sheepen Area.")

But those were wee laddie potholes on the high road to freedom.

Now there's no more champagne for Lulu.

Aye. 'Tis indeed something to scream and shout about.
