That is a good thought, *Varda*, that the Shire can be like Scotland, but I was thinking that Scotland (Ireland too) were more like the Barrow Downs and the Old Forest. I think that the Shire is more like England. Scotland is connected England on the same island so it does make sense. I don't know if you thought that I meant the Shire was like Scotland or if you thought that yourself. Scotland and Ireland seem to be more related to the Old Forest and especially the Barrow Downs.
