    Terry Pratchett's "Wee Free Men" are scottish?

    Well, not exactly media as in tv or magazine but I think Sir Terry is one of the best known authors of the UK..

    Only recently I had a sudden burst of insight and figured out (yea yea, I'm kinda dense sometimes) that the Wee Free Men were fashioned to the look of a highlander; (they even live "up at the downs"). No idea how many real scots wear bones in their hair or how they feel about being pictured as violence-loving, stealing and cussing, er, vertically challenged gents though...

    Anyway, I love the fantastic tales of the Discworld. Any more fans out here?
    Mods, feel free to move or delete this thread. I just thought it would be a fun addition..
