We can indeed be trusted to lots of things right.
Best place to live in the UK - Edinburgh, Scotland
Invention of just about everything - Scots
Highest grossing book ever - J K Rowling - Scottish
That covers culture, academia and environment - need I go on.
We are also the best at driving ourselves into an early grave, but I'll blame that on the predominence of Irish genes in the west!!!!
