They are popular everywhere here, but I can't believe I am the only one who
doesn't like it. If you come up to Scotland you will see just the same in
towns and cities.

I 'have' eaten at a McDonalds (once) and I said so! A friend was passing
through and I said I would make dinner, but he said he didn't have much time
so why didn't we go to McDonalds! We did and I have recounted in the past
