SCOTTISH bands

I spent almost a year in Scotland, as a language assistant... more than a decade ago!!

What did I like most in Scotland?? well, here is a short list!
Irn-Bru, the Scottish accent, the kilts, Glasgow, Mackintosh style, the Highland cows,
and of course Scottish music...it's not only bagpipes!
