Crossing the Border from England can be a lengthy and trying process. Visitors are strongly advised to make preparations where possible in advance of their journey, in order to cut down on delays at border check-points.


Simple measures that can be taken at any time of year include the pre-stamping of passports or temporary visas (just pop into your local Passport Office or Scotish Embassy), the exchange of appropriate currency through your bank (Scottish Poonds are usually available straight across the counter), the purchase of a phrase-book and basic groceries and, of course, the addition of snow-chains to the wheels of your car (adisable, though not yet obligatory in most parts of Scotland).


Once you have passed the quick medical check-up and got over the more rigorous written exam imposed by the Scottish Tourist Board, you will be safely through the border-controls and free to continue your journey North - keeping a watchful eye out from this moment on for the Artic Hare, Golden Eagles and Red Deer by the roadside.


N.B.


Don't forget that in Scotland you always drive in the MIDDLE of the road.





It's O.K. for me, I have a 'Yorkshire Passport' entitles me to free entry in Scotland, though the difficult part is passing between borders form Yorkshire and Scotland.
