Re: Ditch Flower of Scotland?
Jeeze, but am I the only one who remembers that prior to football hooligans adopting "Flower of Scotland" -- a rather mindless tune in my opinion -- that we used to stand up at the end of the movies, etc. and sing "Scots Wha' Hae"? Wendy Wood (of Waverley Steps fame) would spin her in grave at the thought of something so insipid as "Flower of Scotland" being insisted upon as a "national anthem" by today's crop of noveau-nationalists.
As Jock Sinclair once said, "Yon's a cheesey tune."
