slightly off the point but did you know where curfew comes from. William the Conquerer set this tradition up in Startford Upon Avon. at 7.55pm people had to return to thier house to cover thier fires and cease the flame from burning. (cessez-le-feu) this in turn got people off the street hence where curfew began.

No idea what you mean about the one in Scotland though sorry.

There aren't any curfews where I am in Scotland! You make it sound as if we live in a militaristic tyranny - which, at last look, I don't *think* we did.
Are you thinking about some curfews on people with bottles of alcohol in certain city centres? Well, they're in England, too, so don't blame Scotland alone for this!
