Love this! #DeanOwens in his own version of the Scottish #ElevatorSketch (aka 11)! Scotsman trying to explain to an American how to pronounce Edinburgh! Edinboro.... Embra... Edinburg...? What do YOU say?! American gets his own back replying in Spanish🤣😍 youtube.com/shorts/dlnoeLP5Q…

Sending this out to the #Scottish Football Team and the #TartanArmy, from the fabulous #DeanOwens "You have to be brave, you have to be strong, and you have to be tough. You have to keep going and never give up..." C'way the lads! #WorldCup #Boston ⚽️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿⚽️ youtube.com/shorts/qe-687dhI…

George Washington Awarded Highest Scottish Honour as Traffic Cone Appears on Boston Statue's Head. With tens of thousands of Scotland fans descending on Boston ahead of the World Cup, local authorities have reported the city's first officially recognised act of Scottish diplomacy. Overnight, the George Washington statue just two miles from the famous Fenway Park, was discovered wearing a bright orange traffic cone on its head. Whilst confusing Americans, to Scots, it represents one of the greatest marks of respect given to historic figures, but really is a symbol of Scotland’s irreverent humour. The tradition originates in Glasgow, where the Duke of Wellington statue has worn a traffic cone for decades, due to the fact that despite council efforts to remove the cone, within hours, even minutes... it is back, a collective Scottish effort to continue the tradition. Historians were initially baffled as to why George Washington had been selected, before members of the Tartan Army explained: "He fought for freedom and independence, founded a nation, and probably would've enjoyed a pint. That's cone worthy." The statue has since been nicknamed "The Duke of Washington." Boston officials have yet to remove the cone, with one city worker reportedly admitting: "We've looked into the Scottish cultural significance and honestly, we're scared to touch it." Meanwhile, rumours are spreading that if Scotland win their opening match, plans are already underway to extend the honour to several other Boston landmarks. Authorities are currently monitoring traffic cone sales across the city. 100% Maybe True Courtesy of @ScottishAye

Incredible scenes at the Kelpies today in Falkirk as piper Neil Clark bravely scaled one of them and played the bagpipes from the mouth of Baron to help raise money for the charity Maggie’s who support people with cancer at their centres across the country. #kelpies #falkirk

Happy 80th birthday to actor Brian Cox who was born in Dundee. He has appeared in many hit films, including Manhunter, Braveheart and The Bourne Identity. His star turn as Logan Roy in Succession won him a Golden Globe and is well worth a watch. Have a belter Brian 🥳
