I am hugely proud to be Scottish, and love the country very much (its the political side, both here and in London, that annoys me. lol). When England won the 1966 World Cup, they still went on about it in 2010 before South Africa. It was 44 years ago, get over it. Also, if tennis player Andy Murray is doing well, the news people say he's British, and if he does poor, he then becomes Scottish. They try to use Britain to help make England look better, even though he's Scottish. It happens with a lot of Sports people. While it's technically true that I am British, I would prefer to be known as Scottish 
/Light-hearted rant over. lol |
I get that. I feel the same way. I don't feel Spanish. It's not like I hate anything about it, I just don't feel attached to the country cause I belong to a smaller part of it where we have our own language, culture and financial policy. So yeah, I totally get where you're coming from and YES, it
is a BIG deal
