Both countries have a proud heritage, a separate identity, a host of special traditions and a superior attitude to an adjoining nation.<br /> Scotalonia, as the new state will be called, will have its own parliament, its own judiciary and – if negotiations succeed - its own tartan. Talks are under way between Alejandro Salmone of Catalonia and Arthur McMaster from the Scottish Nationalist Party. The capital will be Barceloburgh or Edilona, or possibly Largos. </p> <p>One of the first issues to be hammered out by the Scotalonian government will be the issue of North Sea Olive Oil. Former Scots have a traditional suspicion of salad, while ex-Spaniards have little or no experience of porage. A recipe to solve the deadlock has been sought, without success. Football - an obsession for both countries - may too become a political football. But both sides are said to be enjoying the new relationship, sealed by the traditional greeting “Ola the noo!” </p>
