    Of course Jock but for many of those that did know I am sure that would have been a reason.

    Could well be Trefor, can you recall how much they cost and just what that actually bought?

    I can't remember the full details Jock but there were originally three classes of passport and the highest price was £110.00 which included a stand seat for some event on the Castle Esplanade, access to the march up the Royal Mile and entrance to Holyrood Park.

    The prices were cut to £55.00 after a lot of tickets failed to sell at the full value but also carried less entitlements.

    No doubt those who had one of these passports can supply more detailed information about what each type was supposed to buy.
