Hi, Dunnottar Castle is beautiful and in a great location and it was interesting to hear the history here . Thanks for all of the info . Hehe the blooper :) ~ Anna 👍

[@relicsruins]

Hi Anna, thank you so much! I agree the location is stunning. We were still discussing the correct pronunciation as I was editing the video - hope I got it right! 😂

[@FXWalesAnnaAlf]

​@@relicsruins Haha I don't know how to pronounce Scottish names as I'm Welsh and we only cover castles and ruins in North Wales . You did well, I think I would pronounce it the same as you did 😃👍

[@relicsruins]

@@FXWalesAnnaAlf Well I'm English, so I stand no chance! 😂

[@FXWalesAnnaAlf]

@@relicsruins Haha 🤭 I noticed that you have been up to North Wales in your videos too 😃 You've got some good ones I briefly clicked through and saw Dolbadarn, we live quite close to that. Anyway I joined you earlier so it will be nice to see your English places 👍
