    Edinburgh has been in the news today but not because of this - it was all about the continuing fiasco of the trams.

    I caught the Ceremony of the Keys last year sort of by accident....I went to tour Holyrood, but it was closed because they were practicing for the Queen's arrival. This was one video I took of part of the run through...If you skip ahead a bit after the march in, the band plays a few tunes.



    We went back to see the actual thing.....here are some pics - some of which I posted in a different thread...so sorry for the repeats. We couldn't get very close...but believe it or not, we were at the very front of a crowd of hundreds of spectators lined up the street....so I was lucky to get them:















    Royal luggage...haha.
