Sadly a myth along with Master Bates and Seaman Staines.

Why are we touchy about being Scottish??
Are they?
Well that's thirty years of insulting them I hadn't realised.
I only know that you shouldn't call Scots Scotch. They don't like that: it's a foreign term for what they call whisky.Not touchy about being Scottish, but I have had more than one Caledonian pull me up and insist on being "Scots".
