Cultural enthicity...the whole world loves a coke!
You have a piont about discrimination against us Scots though (sorry Rach, Suzibabs

) we're the last vestiges of legalised racism.
My pet hate is when I'm on the phone to someone South of the border (souf of the border!) and they keep asking me to repeat everything I say becuase they can't understand my accent

I can understand deepest brummie, South (souff) London, best Oxford, Mancunian, Yorkshire, Lancashire, deep Summerset, Cornwall but they can't undertand us.
Mind you, they are quick to understand the linguistics when we start swearing.

Getting a bit off topic here - sorry.
As for cultural diversity - didn't we 'sweaty socks' invent that - 'Jock Thampsons bairns', Burns 'A mans a man for a that' etc?
As for getting soaked - maybe you're praying to the wrong God F4I
PS
Mecca's in the opposite direction.
