That may be, but it still doesn't change the fact that he was never at the Battle of Falkirk, so couldn't have fought there. We could put it that way instead 
As I said, my Scottish history in school was geared more towards the Bruce, so that's what history was taught. Whether it was correct or incorrect is up to you I guess.

I can't see where you got the idea that I'm 'so interested' in Scotland. It's my home, so I suppose the local culture, traditions and issues do interest and affect me. I don't think that's a bad thing though? I'm only interested because it affects my life and work
