Coke is juice in Scotland

[tobyaw]

Heading north on the East Coast main line from Kings Cross to Leuchars; the train crew changes at Newcastle, and we have Scottish stewards for the latter half of the journey. This was apparent when the drinks trolley came along: I asked for a juice, and was offered apple, orange, Coke, or Diet Coke.

I hate how they call it juice here! And, horrors, I have started to do the same! At least with the appellation "fizzy juice".

It is only proper that you adopt the culture of the country that you live in! First you start referring to fizzy juice, and before you know it you’ll be saying “Jings!”, “Crivens!”, and “Help ma, Boab!”
