    Always great to see your pics, Alex; I've just been reading Magnusson's history of Scotland and it's particularly great to see these pics right now. Thanks!

    Great pics, Alex!
    That's one of my favourite places to be... its an absolutely beautiful castle.
    It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom -- for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself.
