Thank you, James, for another jaunt down this particular Memory Lane. I lived in dear Edinburgh, Autumn 1970 until Autumn 1974. I re-visited the city and Waverley Station a few years ago, travelling from Taunton via Waverley Station, in transit to visit my Sons and their Families (one residing in Kinghorn and the other in Bathgate - that other now living in Eskdalemuir). During my waiting time, I spent a while paying my silent respects to the Old Town. Sad to see dear auld reeky in such a state. The historical aspect/fabric of the 'town' is still quite intact. However, the transient inhabitants, students, drop-outs et al. are, to me, superfluous to humanity, mostly being within a congregated malicious, rabid mob. They offer nothing but intimidation and desecration of Dear Auld Edinburgh. In conclusion: Respect and thank you, James. All the best. Rab 🍻 😎 🌠
Brilliant video! 05:01 the structures on the right seem like pure fantasy!
Edinburgh was on my 'to visit' list for this year - hopefully next year if all is well to travel :)
Another good one James.... (y)
Brilliant
Great video! Although Elizabeth I was never a queen of Scotland, you've missed out Mary Queen of Scots!
Oops - I did have a scottish timeline that I used on a previous video that had the correct version - next time!
Awaiting pleasure and bittersweet memories, T T T A. Bye for now. Rab 💚 👋
