    It is the real bridge.

    People get mixed up between the Forth Road Bridge and the Forth Bridge. The Forth Bridge (the real bridge) is the railway bridge.

    We are currently building a new crossing, the government had some publicity a few months back to gather names for what it should be called. Unfortunatley its getting called the Queensferry Crossing rather than some of the better suggestions.

    One of my favourites was...... 'the third Forth Bridge'

    I'll never forget when Mom's tiny poodle started barking at our Scottish cousin and he said "Och! Y'enarrrmus brut!"

    Did Hollywood replace your cousin with an American actor?
