UP HERE IN SCOTLAND we love hugging. We'll hug each other anywhere and at any time: First thing in the morning, at the bus stop, in the shops, on the corner, as a group, after supper, beneath an electricity pylon or near that tree over there. When we find ourselves in a situation where we can't hug each other, well, what we do is we send each other a hug.
You should try it yourself.
Everybody loves a hug.
