• I don't go out of my way to get noticed. When I'm in Scotland it's tough, because loads of people come up to me. They're always really polite.

I'd rather they came up and said hello.

I'm lucky I never liked the taste of alcohol - I know, I'm Scottish so what's wrong with me? - but I never even liked the smell of the stuff. It's the same with smoking, it never appealed to me. I guess I missed out on my Kevin-The-Teenager phase.
