Take it from a born-and-bred Scot, confusing Britain and England, and their relationship to Scotland, is not a good idea.

And if you really want to get on the locals' good sides, anything to slag off Glasgow and praise Edinburgh usually goes down well (though obviously, vice versa when in Glasgow ).

Sound,sound advice.
