    The comments on that site gave me a headache.

    I quite agree, Greg. To be honest, I have stopped reading the comments on the on-line editions of The Scotsman. On the whole they are pretty abusive regardless of the topic, and appear to be contributed by a smallish core of 'professional' stirrers. I rather wish the paper would dispense with that facility.

    Take care,
    Ham.

    When I was in Sweden, I was told that being reserved is a Swedish trait, that Swedes are kindly and polite yet withdrawn and don't often openly speak ill of one another. However, they sometimes let out all that represessed hostility in anomymous letters.

    Could some Scots have inherited something from their Norse forebears?
