1 Scotland This Power point Will tell you all About Scotland

2 Dundee Dundee is one of the places in Scotland. It has a shortbread biscuit named after it. And it is the second largest city in Scotland.

3 The capital The capital is Edinburgh. Edinburgh is the seat of the Scottish Parliament.

4 Food Haggis: Haggis is perhaps the best known Scottish delicacy, and it is wonderful stuff, with a rich flavour, although those partaking for the first time are often put off when they hear what it is made of.

5 Snow balls Snow balls are big marshmallows covered in chocolate, with coconut sprinkles on top.

6 Arbroath Smokie A wood-smoked haddock still produced in small family smoke- houses in the East coast fishing town of Arbroath.

7 Bannocks (or Oatcakes) A barley and oat-flour biscuit baked on a gridle. In modern times bannocks are often eaten with cheese. There are several traditional recipes and many manufacturers in Scotland today.

8 Scottish Beef The Aberdeen-Angus breed of beef cattle are now widely reared across the world. Reknown for their rich and tasty meat, which makes excellent steaks.

9 Scotch Broth or Hotchpotch A rich stock is traditionally made by boiling mutton (the neck is best), beef, marrow- bone or chicken (for a chicken broth).

10 Black Bun Black Bun is a very rich fruit cake, made with raisins, currants, finely-chopped peel, chopped almonds and brown sugar with the addition of cinnamon and ginger. It takes its name from the very dark colour.

11 Colcannon A dish found in the Western Islands of Scotland and also in Ireland. It is made from boiled cabbage, carrots, turnip and potatoes. This mixture is then drained and stewed for about 20 minutes in a pan with some butter, seasoned with salt and pepper and served hot.

12 Scottish Salmon The Rivers Tay and Tweed are major salmon fisheries. Since Victorian times these and other rivers have hosted wealthy fishing parties on the estates of the aristocracy.

13 Crowdie A simple white cheese, made from the whey of slightly soured milk seasoned with salt and a touch of pepper. The seasoned whey is squeezed in a muslin bag to remove excess water, left aside for two days and then rolled in oats and served.

14 The Scottish flag. The Scottish flag is the cross of St. Andrew, also known as the Saltire. It is said to be one of the oldest national flags of any country, dating back at least to the 12th century.

15 The royal flag. There is a second flag which is associated with Scotland, the "Rampant Lion", or theRoyal Flag of Scotland. Although based on an older Scottish flag than the St. Andrew's Cross, it should, strictly speaking, now only be used by the monarch in relation to her capacity as Queen of Scotland. However, it is widely used as a second national flag.

16 Drinks Scotch Whisky (or simply "Scotch") is certainly the best known Scottish drink. Scotch Whisky (only the Irish and American varieties are spelled with an "e") is distilled from a barley liquor and flavoured with peat tainted water. Known as the Water of Life or Uisge-Beatha in Gaelic.

17 Scottish Beers & Ales Brewing in Scotland is now dominated by international conglomerates: Previously Alloa Brewery Company Ltd. Having said this, in recent times, there has been a revival of smaller breweries using traditional methods, some of the better known.

18 Hot Toddy Place a teaspoon-full of sugar and a teaspoon-full of Scottish heather honey in a warm glass. Add a measure of Scotch Whisky (usually not a malt) and top up with boiling water. Traditionally should be stirred gently with a silver spoon. An excellent cure for the common cold, or just when feeling down.
