  the Scots continued to waste the borderlands.
  REF: Famous Scottish Battles: The Scots, since the reign of
  Malcolm Canmore (1058 - 1093) had been trying - in vain - to
  asert their claim on the lands known as Northumbria, in the
  North of England. This had been carried over to David's reign
  by way of duty. In 1138, David invaded England and was met by a
  body of Norman's at Northallerton. The Norman's standard emblem
  was a wagon with a mast, itself bearing religious standards.
  The Scottish army numbered 26,000, but were 'ill formed'. There
  were 'lowlanders with long spears; men of Galloway with pikes
  only; men of Orkney and the Isles with their battle-axes; and
  Higlanders with their swords and small round shields'. Each
  attack they made was repelled and when a cry went up that David
  was slain there was further confusion. Though baffled, David
  was not dead, and contrary to many other sources, it can be
  revealed that David was not totally defeated at this battle. He
  rallied his men and they wasted the English borders until
  Stephen gave up Northumbria. The rest of his reign was
  peaceful.
  
  REF: Scottish History website: David I had received a Norman
  education and grew to love Normans and Anglo-Norman culture. He
  may have thought they were his friends, but a quote from
  Anglo-Norman Noble William of Malmesbury, reveals much; "His
  manners were polished from the rust of Scottish barbarity".
  On David I's return to Scotland as king he proceeded to
  distribute large estates there amongst his Anglo-Norman
  friends, such as the de Brus (the Bruce family), Walter
  Fitz-Alan, a Breton who became his high Steward (the ancestor
  of the Stewart Clan), de Bailleul (the Balliol family), de
  Comines (the Comyn family) and many others who thus became
  landholders on both sides of the border. David I also
  introduced into the Lowlands a fuedal system of ownership,
  founded on a new, French speaking
  Anglo-Norman aristocracy. Although they intermarried and
  eventually merged with the old and rapidly
  disappearing, Celtic aristocracy, these new Scots remained for
  a time partially Gaelic, save for the south and east of
  Scotland which now spoke a primitive form of English, (Lothian
  English). Meanwhile, in the Highlands of Scotland, a different
  more patriarchal system prevailed (based on the ancient clan
  system), and the King of Scots writ counted for very little,
  while in the Isles of western Scotland and parts of the
  west mainland, whose Norse-Scot clans, paid no attention to the
  King of Scotland, if anyone it was to the king of Norway. When
  David I came to the throne in 1124, Scotland had been a rather
  primitive country, with only small towns and little industry.
  Also, depending on where you were in the Lowlands in 1124 , you
  could have to speak Latin, French, English or a number of
  Gaelic dialects just in the south of Scotland. The Scottish
  church with only three Bishops, had little influence. When
  David I died in 1153 much had changed. In many areas of the
  Lowlands, what remained of the old Celtic way of life had been
  swept away and a new Anglo-Norman order of things were
  established in it's place. While David did little to help the
  old Celtic ways, he modernized a backward Scotland -- and Scots
  benefitted from David I's administrative work. Especially
  future kings of Scotland.[MARSHALL.FTW]
