Especially the men. Every kilt I have looked up reveals something quite short, so at least half the people are short assuming 50/50 population.

Midges are small flies. I am a Scot and I am not short. My son is 6'
3" as is my brother and cousins. However i would say that the Scots do tend to be a bit smaller in certain areas of the country.

That's bollox. Scots are fine, handsome stallion like men. It's the English who have boils, scurvey and screech like wounded rabbits.
And yes it's midgies, not midgets.

I think you've got it wrong , there are a lot of midges ( tiny flying creatures) on the West Coast which bite ! The people are no shorter than other Brits.

midgies - gnats. Little biting flies. They infest the countryside - especially in the west - in summer. I'm 6 foot 1

Oh yes ... those short Scottish people are well known for their bites - they've got viscious tempers too and have been known to attack without warning - so watch out!

It is evolutions way to protect them from the dreaded haggis.
The haggis is short sighted so can't see them !!

i think you've mistaken people/midgets for haggis. yeah, they're real vicious, which is partly why haggis hunting is sooo popular over here. it's such a challenge, especially finding one in the first place....
