Just for Fun

You know you’re an expatriated Scot in Bermuda when:

• you regularly lament the lack of chip shops.

• you were forwarded the article about the Buckfast ban in Bermuda by everyone you know at home.

• you regularly make a special trek to Lindo’s and/or Miles, even if you live nowhere near them, just to pick up supplies of Irn Bru and Tunnock’s Teacakes.

• you smirk to yourself when anyone complains about the Bermuda weather during a three-minute downpour.

• you regularly have to explain your vocabulary because nobody knows what numpty, eejit, or square-go means.

• even if you normally hate the Proclaimers, Runrig, Deacon Blue, Big Country, etc, you feel a swell of pride when they are played in a Bermuda bar.

• regardless of how long you’ve lived here, you turn into some sort of half-human/half-lobster creature for the first few weeks of summer.

• when someone mentions “Sunday breakfast” you think of square sausages and black pudding before codfish and potatoes.

• you think of House of India as a taste of home.

• you lie when anyone asks you what’s in haggis.

• you get tired of people asking where in Ireland you’re from.
