12.23. A.M. Irish time. Hello Edward. Been watching your videos since 6 o'clock. Enjoying them, Love Scotland. Thanks for sharing. Kind regards Niall O'Connell Dundalk Ireland. Love to visit, job search presently.
Another great video Ed. A bit dark but it is because of the Jacobite Uprising that I was born in New England. John Macbean was captured at the Battle of Dunbar, put in chains, put on a ship to Boston where he worked his way out of servitude. The Battle of Culloden all but decimated the Macbean Men. Culloden was only miles from their Clan Lands....Dores to Tomatin.
Culloden Moor, the shame of the British Army, the shame of the current Royal family and a heinous act of genocide on a proud people! Thanks Ed for all your videos but especially this one and I'm from Wishaw (Cambusnethan), so the mention of Allanton brings a closer connection.
Lovely thank you I'm from England but spent a good year roaming and learning Highlands truths. It's so sad what the butcher and longshanks did. I was appealed to learn it as an adult. The systematic destruction of the glory that once was just because you were a bigger bully. Blessings Ed burns I love your videos of parts I didn't get to see ❤
Great wee video Ed very interesting indeed. I bet so many people have little knowledge of the History surrounding the 1745 Jacobite Uprising . Thanks for sharing Ed
I was about to write this video, but after looking at the other comments, they all have it covered and i can only echo what the others say. Fantastic video, well done and with passion Ed
Wow Ed , you really let loose on this one and quite rightly so,it should never be forgotten that these atrocities took place. Well done ma man 👌🏴
Thanks Roddy. I think sometimes we just don't want to talk about these things, given that it's in the past. But as the saying goes: we will never forget. Take care.
Cheers. The sounds at the start come from 'Celtic Era', a highly recommended bit of software that I use with Cubase Elements. The soundscapes are already made up so you don't need to do a lot with them, although you do have control re the actual note etc. I used two sounds, one with just a low background sweeping sound, and another with piano and those fairy-type whispers.
Great video Ed yet again. Enjoyed your background accounts to Culloden. Was only talking to my wife about this and how the RC have been treated. Just look at how Mary Queen of Scots was treated by her cousin Queen Elizabeth I. Regards from Auckland, NZ.
Hi Ed, great views from the hill, I've never walked up that one although I parked my caravan on the Strathyre site a couple of times. Very informative rant, probably a lot of people look on the protestant / Catholic thing as just a rangers and Celtic excuse to batter hell oot each other. You didn'y miss many people there, royalty and British rail. Keep up the good work.
Hi Neil. It's OS Landranger map number 57, 'Stirling & The Trossachs'. About 4 miles in total, and took about 5 hours, including filming. A fairly straightforward path with some boggy sections, a few mild scrambly bits or bits where you felt you wanted to grab onto something, and a fence to get over as the style was broken.
Thanks Graham. Sorry I didn't get to your gig at The Clutha. Hope it went well. On looking at RUclips footage of your other gigs there it must have gone down a storm.
Hi Ed. , Really enjoy your videos. Hope you wont mind me saying the Stewarts and the 45 had a lot less to do with religion than people think. It was part of a much larger geo-political struggle between Britain ( England really ) , France and Spain. The stewarts had close connections with France and also Spain both of which were long term adversaries of England. Summing up , religion had a very small part to play in these events which were about politics and power.
Religion and greed..... The primary causes of all evil. Northern Ireland aside, sectarianism/bigotry was always strong when I was growing up in the west of Scotland and it's still rife. That's a poor basis for the SNP strategy of welcoming all cultures to Scotland. Complacency is the problem , and that obviously extends to the poor performance of ScotRail. Anyway, Ed, the vistas were stunning (hope the pie was good) and thank you again 👍🏻

Well said Mr ed 👍
Great video Ed love the content. What's the music at the start of this one? Sounds very mystical.

To open the disabled toilet in Stirling, you insert your key in a place to the left of the door and the door opens automatically. 😉
Lovely video Ed as always
Cheers Alan.
Great views. How long was the walking from the 'starting' point? Would you rate the route easy, middle or difficult?

Fascinating stuff. Royalty were/are just Gangsters of their time. Nothing special just thugs.
Good video.

Thanks Ed. Aye , it was a cracker !
Catch up with you another time 🫡

Thanks Robert. I struggle to get my head around a lot of it, and hope to just give a brief glimpse of what went on.
