    Robert, I just love your channel. Your stories always bring a smile... Although today, thinking of what the ole Monk was getting up to made that smile a little wicked. I enjoyed it very much.. hahaha. Loved the history lesson this week. American film makers ruin everything... 🤪

    Robert, Well told like only a Scott ghost story can be told! There’s a bone chill in the air… It’s mystical & magical and I love the way you told the story you’re a great storyteller. Thanks for the visual. It was really good to see where this all took place.👏🏼🙌🏼

    A priest who was not bad enough on earth to be sent to hell. Makes you wonder what the other priest got up to.
    I was in Chester in August where I had a chance to see the Cathedral which is also built of sandstone. I was rather struck with the delightful colour so I assume Melrose Abbey must have been equally delightful in its day.
