<br>If you agree with this, do you think Low Saxon speakers, Frisians, Dutch are more like Germans or British?<br><br>I
would say that, compared to the English, Scots are less likely to say
that a thing's going well for fear of jinxing it, but it's still "small
talk".<br><br>Sandy Fleming<br><a href="http://scotstext.org/" target="_blank">http://scotstext.org/</a><br><font size="2"><span></span></font><p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2"><span><br>
