    My grandfather died on March 18th, and he requested this piece for his funeral. I’d never heard it before, but my word, it’s the most fantastic piece of music. Andre Rieu has done an excellent job. I miss him everyday, but I always have this to turn to. He’s no longer with us, but I have him in my heart… I’m struggling, but I have good and bad days. I just wish I’d told him so much more about how he’d shaped my upbringing. Rest in peace, I hope you’re proud of me.

      Depending on where you are in the world, the majority of stadiums cater for all sorts of disabled people. You just need to book your ticket maybe separately with the booking team on the phone. My friend in a wheelchair could do this in London , but in Maastricht I saw some people on special stretchers too. Andre and team are very considerate so worth a try.

    who died for something worth more to them
    For Scotland and its people.
    (Chorus)
    We who now must follow them
    Shall we do the same again
    Fight and die for freedom still
    or bow on bended knee.
    Scotland's people are the greatest kind
    a friend to all with ties that bind
    A people yet both fierce and kind
    For Scotland and its people.

    Time for Scots to raise their eyes
    Let their talents gain their prize
    Raise their banner in the world's eyes
    For Scotland and its people.

      So mabye you're subconsciously picking up on that. They're also very 'plucky' (I know that's more of a British word) but it's still a trait that garners admiration.
