I have spent a bit over a year living here in Scotland. To summarize, I made a list of some problems I encountered during this period. These are not fault of Scotland itself, though.

Water. This basic element came out from the wrong point of the washing machine and a plumber needs to be called. Water also came out from a radiator. And through the roof over a bay window during windy rain.

Electricity. Couple mysterious blackouts in the flat.

Gas. One of the flats was without official gas supply and that wasn't told to me until I started to call up gas companies to find out who is the provider.

Address. Lost address change notification for the council caused extra expenses and head ache. Wrong starting date in the systems of other council required several attempts to get corrected.

Money. Landlady losing banker's draft worth of 1050 pounds, took four months to solve with her and the bank.

Three. Took me a good amount of time and effort to cancel the mobile internet connection during the cool off period.

NHS. Assignment to a GP took several attempts before getting it right Pure lottery in my opinion.

So, couple minor issues but otherwise life has been good.
