Enjoying your video. Discovered your fascinating video when I looked up The Wolf of Badenoch. Last month I was in Scotland (first time) and back home in the Florida trying to keep cool with it being in the 90s here. I am reading a book by Neil Oliver on The History of Scotland to further my education. I managed to pick up 14 books on Scotland on the trip so much to learn about a beautiful part of the world. There are so many places we didn't get to see though. But we were amazed at the places and things we did see like Stirling castle, Dumferline, Blackness castle, Glasgow, Edinburgh, Edinburgh castle, Holyrood, Ft William, Scone palace, Inverness, Urquart, Eilean Donan, the Kelpies, Isle of Skye , the Isle of May to see puffins and other nesting birds. Managed to find 78 bird species while in Scotland. Lovely video. Loved seeing the gorse again, the bird feather, the tiny frogs.....When I saw the rain I thought of our hike to the Fairy Pools and how our shoes took 3 days to dry out. haha. It was spectacular though. We did manage to beat the midges which we had heard so much about. Thanks for posting the video. I hope to get back to Scotland soon.

Hi Tom, really enjoyed that, thank you . I remember my elderly aunt telling me one of the few things she remembered from Scots History was that the Wolf of Badenoch was forced, after sacking Elgin Catherdral, to do penance at Dunkeld Cathedral “in his shirt and drawers”. This would have been at her Primary School in the 1920s and the class were pretty shocked by their genteel spinster teacher using the word “drawers”. Different days!

You talking is honey for the soul, so keep on telling stories. I love Scotland, only been in Edinburgh and Glasgow sofas, but will visit the Highlands one day. Also the walls or the rest what was left looked amazing to me. Thank you for taking me to your holiday trip with this video.

I will never make it over to Scotland even though I have lines going back to Robert the Bruce, and a whole bunch of other muckety mucks from centuries ago, and am 40% Scottish, so this is perfect. Your imagination brings the castle to life. And I’m still of the opinion you could be a book narrator, or Nature show narrator. Someone needs to snatch you up as narrator. Your voice is simply amazing.

Many a time have I passed by Lochindorb, over the Dava and on to the A9 heading south to Perth. Thank you for, mainly, pronouncing the local place names accurately!

Lovely time. Yes most castles and keeps had a small garden. When there was a big to do things would be brought in from all around.

I’m a little late watching this time, while you are looking around a castle ruins, I’m watching the beginning of a snow storm heading my way. This is our first storm here in Ontario Canada this year the last was over Christmas. What beautiful scenery a comfortable chair a book I could sit there for a long time if only the weather would cooperate in Scotland.

Yes, perfect! goodnight good sir

Wow quite the storm. 😊
