My Love for Scotland

I just want to put it out there that I love Scotland. And it's true, one could say that my love for this beautiful country might be from the fact that this is where a lot of my ancestry comes from. Yes, this plays a part in my fond feelings. But I must say that there's a much better reason for my gratitude: Just take a look at all these tasty morsels-all from Scotland. It seems to me that there are just some countries that produce them better that ever. Here's a little glimpse into that fabulous country.


First we have Gerard Butler. First seen in Tomb Raider and Phantom of the Opera but more widely known for 300 and the recently released PS I Love You. But if you have a minute, catch him in Dear Frankie and Timeline as well.

Next is Ewan McGreggor who you probably saw in the new Star Wars movies, but don't miss him in Miss Potter and Big Fish.

Then we have John Hannah, who you have to see in Sliding Doors and Four Weddings and a Funeral.

And then of course, we can't forget Billy Boyd, who stole all our hearts in Lord of the Rings. But he was also adorable in On a Clear Day.

And then we have the tastiest morsel yet. A man who, dangit, if he wasn't married, I'd buy a ticket to Scotland today! Catch him in Atonement, Becoming Jane, Starter for 10, and Wimbeldon. Ah yes, the lovely James McAvoy.

My friends, I think we need to schedule a trip to Scotland soon.
