Hi Russell,

I work for an e-commerce store based in Scotland. Basically Scotland has 
'counties' just like England and Wales. A quick google turned up this page:

http://www.peak.org/~jeremy/dictionary/tables/counties.php

In which the last table had a decent list of Scottish counties. I've 
found that just allowing users to type in their region/county/state can 
be easier than providing a list half the time.

HTH
