Welcome to dunfermline - it wasn't always this bad

 

A PTTGOYN of mine is when folk presume that as 'Scotland's Ancient Capital', Dunfermline was the capital of Scotland as we know it today.

 

To the best of my knowledge, it was only capital of an ancient 'Kingdom of Scotland' that only included lands north of the Forth, excluding the Northern Isles, and is the same as the current setup in name only. At this time Edinburgh and the Lothians belonged to 'Angleland', the kingdom that was of course to become England [insert Anglophobic comment about how nothing has changed there].

Didn't even have the Weegies and the rest of Strathclyde on board then.
