Cheerio....

To anyone wanting to go to Scotland, do not be lured by the grim faced and damp West Coasty mountains and lochs that attack you with midges and where you need a mac and wellies for 90% of the year. Come to lovely Fife, with its bracing wind (stand at 45% angle and you should be fine and not be blown over), its sunny days (plant out your veg and sweet peas in glorious April and May... then regret it when it hails and snows on 1st June. And if you don't visit for the weather then visit for its hail and hearty welcome, its fun loving and warm people and the best of all the truly meant farewell as you leave a shop or home "Cheerio". It really makes your heart glad, and encourages you to return when you know you have been welcomed home to Fife!
