When you order shellfish in the world's most prestigious restaurants there's a very good chance it will have come from Scottish waters. The biggest, most prestigious arts festival on the planet happens every August in Edinburgh. Manchester United – possibly the world's most famous football team – is managed by a Scotsman, Sir Alex Ferguson.
