A hospital visit in Germany.
Very nice chap sharing a room with my family. Married to a Polish lady. Widely travelled. We chat about the world.
He says, unprompted, Scots are the warmest, most welcoming people he's ever met. He's never felt such genuine friendliness elsewhere.

2/ Remembering individual moments of kindness on his journey all the way to the Hebrides. A visit of a crowded pub where a local, unprompted, offered his chair. The true spirit of B&Bs with no effort spared to make every guest feel comfortable, welcome, at home.
3/ Watching a football game (the Euros co-hosted by Poland that year) & wondering whether they could dare support England in a Scottish pub, only to be met with much good humour, generosity, tolerance when they cheered.
4/ There is something so unique, so lovely about Scotland & its people, I thought you should know how special you are and create lasting, lovely memories for those who come to see you, even just for a short while. There's certainly something you're doing right.
P.S. I miss you.
