My history's a bit hazy, and I'm too lazy to look it up, but wasn't it when James I/ James VI of Scotland was on the the throne? Which means it was after unification, so it could be 'British Day'.
24th march 1603 with the throne only. Full integration only came in when Scotland disolved its parliment and the MPs went to London "alledgedly" on a nice fat bung of gold (26th March 1707) and is still acontensious issue with some.
