Who will be your St Andrew's Bae?
Today, November 30th, is St Andrew's Day, Scotland's national celebration resulting in a day full of Irn Bru, haggis dinners and the occasional drunken dance to the sound of The Proclaimers.
But one question remains - who should YOU spend the day with? Fortunately, we have narrowed down Scotland's 5m+ population to this list of our favourite Scottish baes from the world of music, movies and the general internet.
Pick your fave and get out the whiskey glasses!
1) Calvin Harris
Giphy
How Should You Celebrate?: Go out raving in Glasgow's grimiest nightspots, Calvin hitting the decks in ABC for an impromptu set before you head back to Rihanna's place for some fine wine and tropical bangers.
2) Lauren Mayberry
Giphy
How Should You Celebrate?: Hit up some karaoke bars for a duet on "Bury It", nailing all the Hayley parts, before hopping on a midnight cruise aboard the good ship Parahoy, sailing down the Firth Of Forth while the other CHVRCHES lads run the indie disco.
3) Sam McTrusty
Giphy
How Should You Celebrate?: Find the nearest moshpit and just go straight up nuts! Then blast the new Twin Atlantic album as loud as you can on the Glasgow tube system (The Clockwork Orange) all the way home.
4) Alan Cumming
Giphy
How Should You Celebrate?: Pay tribute to all of Alan's finest roles by representing a high class divorcee in New York just like Eli Gold before jetting off to Russia to start a new "Goldeneye"-style Cold War and finally hit up a Cabaret bar for some burlesque realness.
5) Simon Neil
Giphy
How Should You Celebrate?: Luxury beard trimming session at a posh barber shop. If you don't have a beard, put on a false one and have the barber style it for you.
6) Shrek
Giphy
How Should You Celebrate?: Dance around the swamp to Smashmouth all night long, making sure you are always ready to slam a door wide open whenever the first line kicks in. Shrek is love. Shrek is life. It's never ogre.
7) Ewan McGregor
Giphy
