Have you conducted any surveys into the respective levels of support for the Royal family in England as opposed to Scotland? It'd be a good survey to find but can't see anything recent from likes of YouGov. The trend from past polls is generally younger folk are more against having a Royal family and Scotland's support is noticeably smaller than the rest of the UK. I'd be surprised if the trend in Scotland reversed and support were to increase. We'll find out when the Queen dies I guess as there'll be no shortage of ways to gauge public opinion.

Yip, my town (Innerleithen) has the street bunting out all along the high street, not red, white & blue, just the towns colours of blue & white, usually only see it out during our games week or civic week if that's what people call theirs. Not seen any houses decked out yet, but I'd expect there will be some getting decorated this week, a couple of shops have jubilee displays in their windows.
