Another fascinating and rather eerie video, Steve. These X craft were developed for clandestine operations in WW II, the most famous being the operation against the German battleship "Tirpitz" at her anchorage in northern Norway. Two were lost (one with her crew) while being towed across the North Sea. Two the Craft ( and perhaps third which was lost, managed to lay their charges, carried like "panniers" on the sides of their hulls, which damaged the ship enough to keep it in its fjord until the RAF Lancasters of 617 Squadron finally sank her using bombs designed by Barnes Wallis in 1944. They were also used in the build up to D-Day to stay submerged off the invasion beaches and carry out surveys under cover of darkness. One example of a complete X craft is preserved in the Royal Naval Submarine Museum at Gosport, a memorial to all those brave souls who operated and died in these craft.

Fantastic. Great editing and sound effects. Ah, me. How I love your area of the planet.

The beaches of East Lothian are stunning together with all the history and the characteristic deep red sandstone so typical of the county. Slightly east and along the coast from Tantallon Castle lies a smallish but beautiful private beach called Seacliff with its tiny harbour cut out the rock. You pay around £3 to go through a barrier, I and previous girlfriends, wife and daughter have spent many happy days there over the last fifty years. Incidentally it's where I want my ashes scattered once I've finally shrugged off this mortal coil !! 👍

Watching your videos has shown many things about Scotland I didn’t know before but one in particular stands out and that is the beaches, they are spectacular surely they must be the best in the UK.

Sorry pressed the button by a mistake. I loved walking the beaches in EL they are so beautiful and go for miles. Miss the big tides, in Adelaide they go out 20m max. I try telling the people here that the tide goes out for ever, they don't believe me . Love the history bit . Love your dedication ,it helps expats like me attached. Am coming back for a holiday in July and will definitely be doing that Dunbar walk. As i said before wowwow Steve !!! Am a Musselburgh man living in Adelaide South Australia miss all this but you're videos keep me up reminding just how stuning the place is.

Great find Steve! The X subs famous for their role in the attempts to disable Tirpitz of course! The engine used in the original X sub prototypes were Perkins diesels, made in Peterborough. But the production version for the war years swapped to a Gardner brand engine, before Perkins were chosen to supply the engines for the last x models in the 50's. Perkins was my former employer for 15 years, and there was always pictures on the walls of the historical stuff.... There is a lot of X sub relics at IWM Duxford museum too.

I’m a huge fan of John Muir! I hope to hike the Muir trail in California one day.

There's quite a bit of WW2 stuff around there, Steve. Across the road from where you started there was an army camp on Gosford Estate - some of which is still standing; not to mention loads of those concrete anti-tank blocks lining the main road... If you don't know it, have a good wander round Gosford Estate actually - and look at Gosford House itself too; as half of it is actually derelict if you look from the landward side! That's the new house too - the old one is where the stables are now - at the opposite side of the gardens; which might help you make better sense of the gardens - and don't forget the boathouse on the main pond, which appears to have many more islands than it actually does... Gosford House is stuffed with some of the many art treasures of the Earls of Wemyss; and has a lovely square hall that's entirely made from marble - alas, it's only very rarely open to the public. Worth keeping an eye open for, though. Oh, and a wee tip about Dunbar: the Central Cafe... Apart from their excellent fish teas and even greater ice-cream sundaes; there are old black and white pictures on the walls - including one of the old open-air swimming pools... Look at it now and you'd never guess it existed in a million years! You passed it on your walk into town, by the way...!

Sorry for the long reply. Your great video may have a local connection to my home town of Huddersfield. Thomas Broadbent and Sons Ltd, a Huddersfield company, helped with designing and actually built the X20 Midget Submarine. The X20 was a very well safeguarded secret and had been developed from its predecessors over the last couple of years. Following its completion, it was disguised as a large Motor Boat, with tarpaulin and framework put all around the Midget Submarine. It was then transported under armed escort to Hillside Railway Sidings, Huddersfield and taken north to the River Clyde where she was laid down. X20 would play a significant role in the D-Day Landings, acting as a key navigational tool for the incoming ships. This was done with the Submarine lying off the Normandy Coast from the 4th of June up until the Landings on the 6th. The Submarine had to remain undetected, along with its compatriot, X23. It would be interesting to know if the one you saw was X20 or X23, other X Craft were also involved on an attack on the battleship Tirpitz. In 1970 I spent 7 months in hospital after being as passenger in a nasty car crash, a patient in the same ward worked on the X20, his injuries made him incoherent, although at times he did mention X Craft, sadly died.
