Someone from the HIGHLANDS of Scotland. NOT always from the East coast as everyone likes to think. Usually come from rural areas of the highlands, where Gaelic is spoken in parts. Often mocked for our 'heeland' accents and lack of knowledge about city living. Most think we live in an area with no technology, but we too have broadband, mobile phones and TV.

Basically the Scottish equivalent of an American hick.

Tuechter - Person from more insignificant area's of Scotland than Glasgow, e.g. Edinburgh, or Frazer from Fraserburgh who likes to follow the tartan army and quote braveheart a lot.
Often several years culturally behind Glasgow and surrounding area in terms of popular culture, particularly music and fashion wise.
Tend to be unfriendly, with irritating accents and a bizarre, deluded belief of superiority to Glasgwegians and people from west central Sotland.
