not that I'd expect it to happen, but I wonder if / when they gain independance, will they consider ... - i'm not dead yet ! Nov 23, 18:06 2
- are they gonna follow the The Bruce's or the Wallace's ????? -- nm - DaneDukeNuuk Nov 23, 18:07 1
  - well, i'm tyring to remember my history ,,, i know the Scottish line took over at some point in London ... i just can't remember which family line - i'm not dead yet ! Nov 23, 18:38
