I like both countries, but then my Mum was born in Kent and my Dad in Ross and Cromarty so I guess that is OK. :)
Tend to be UK and Ireland for me, but then I work in that business so bit of insider knowledge :wink:

My mum was born in Surrey and my Dad in Hawick so I just about qualify for both as well :thumbsup:

The Borders and Hawick are on a regular run out for me but I have to say the town is dead on its feet - sad to see really :thumbsdown:

So I bought a 35is with all the toys to play with. :thumbsup:

I've only been the once, about 15 years ago, and it was not thriving then. Sad to hear it hasn't changed

It’s got worse in those 15 years I’m afraid!
I make no joke here but even charity shops have closed - on the plus side tho, the people are still the same Borders folk :thumbsup:

I have Scots blood, Irish blood and 75% English blood. And it all came from the same place , Liverpool. I guess that means I can like anything from anywhere :D too bad I have no relatives on Islay, that would be perfect :roll: :roll: 8) 8)
Sold the Z4 M Roadster and a 911 Carrera S now I have a 2021 Z4 3.0i
