Mitch: [1:17] Oh yeah! - Scotland's not on the Swiss-German border. Isi: [1:21] But, wasn't that the topic. Mitch: [1:22] Yeah, so Marcel asked for us to talk about Scotland. And, one issue we have with that is... we have been to Scotland right? - We have been... - But we don't know that much. - several times. - Yeah, several times, but we still didn't really know that much. - No. - So I did a bit of research and I’m gonna sort of, enlighten all of us, because a lot of these things I was like, what?
