Archie McPhee, Scottish cyber-entrepreuner?

I came across Archie Mcphee webstore the other day, beautifully presented and enterprising, yet selling utter novelty crap.

I thought it was too good to be true – Scottish boy goes to Yankland, becomes cyber-business man and romps home a clear winner.  But nay, Archie McPhee is in fact a dude from North Dakota and doesn’t appear to have been born in Scotland.

Ach well, it’s good marketing strat anyway….!



Tartan Army

The Tartan Army are not in fact an army, but instead loyal football fans who follow the Scotland team the ends of planet earth.  No matter how bad they play, no matter how many goals they let in, the ‘Army’ is there for them.

You may see The Tartan Army in airports frequently – dressed in kilts and Scotland tops, typically with berets too.  Unlike English soccer fans, The Tartan Army are exceptionally well behaved and are true ambassadors for Scotland.  I can’t speak any more highly of their attitude abroad.

All we now need to do is win the world cup, er, I mean qualify for the world cup….
