I know we're supposed to go on about the English not registering Scotland as a real place, but honestly, the Lallanders can be just as bad.

Glaswegian comedienne Susan Calman was on The News Quiz talking about (grr) D*nny Al*x*nd*r, and she said "No-one in Scotland has heard of him. Most Scottish people thought he was the new signing for Celtic."

I know it's an easy mistake to make but Glasgow != Scotland.

Be fair, a lot of Scottish people from a lot of places in Scotland have no idea who he is, more due to him being equal parts nonentity and sock-puppet.

Nor does London = England, but the population proportions are about the same.
