As a pipe smoker/collector, I have no special love for the Scots. On our trip to Britain, the tour guide in Glasgow took great pride in the Scottish parliament being the first to ban smoking in all businesses, even smoke shops.

When he explained about the British Commonwealth, and that Americans were not in it, I shot back, “we resigned.” he was not amused and picked on us a bit the rest of the tour.

In Edinburgh I bought a Monte Cristo number 2, imo the best cigar made, and ther was no place to smoke it, except outside, where, in April, Scottish weather is atrocious.
