Balmoral Castle in the Cairngorms, Scotland. Queen Elizabeth II passed away here
Although you can't go into the castle, the grounds are beautiful and the setting nestled in amongst huge fir trees is very tranquil. I especially enjoyed looking at all of the family photos of the Royal Family in the Ballroom, no photography was allowed inside the ballroom.

A Week in Scotland - GLASGOW UNIVERSITY, Gilbert Scott Building
zhlédnutí 39Před rokem
We drove up to Scotland for a week with our first port of call being Glasgow University. My brother hadn't been able to go to their open day but was in receipt of an offer to study an MA in German and Politics. He met up with a couple of lecturers there and we had a good old look around the complex.

    I was stationed at Belfast Barracks from 1985 - 1st Batt Royal Irish Rangers 7 platoon B Coy then Signal Platoon. I bought my first car in Osnabruck a Gold Opel Manta (3000 deutsche marks) which I did my driving test in as I was never in the UK long enough to get driving lessons. I was surprised they knocked the camp down due to it's long history and solid buildings. I remember the weekly run round the near by lake, and helping out in the battery store next to the REME, this is what set me on the course to become an engineer which I greatly enjoy. I drive past Osnabruck several times a year it is pleasant to see the autobahn sign Osnabruck.

      It was very hard to get any bearings, so it's hard to say which blocks were the ones left standing. I had worked in Quebec Bks and couldn't work out where they had been. My husband worked at Roberts, so a drive I made every day (down the backroads) between the 2 Bks wasn't traceable either.

    Hello. I was stationed in Osnabruck for three years, I arrived Easter 1966. I was at Scarborough Bks ( Kaprivi Kaserna) which is now the Osnabruck Uni. Some CZcams film of the old buildings are great but the vehicle parks and POL points etc are all gone. I couldn’t find any reference to the Old Onsnabruck of my time. Have you any idea where I might find some. Oh and I was in 15Sqn RCT, we had Ten Ton AECs, or knockers as they were known. Fantastic vehicles and a fantastic posting. I went to Sennelager after this.

A Goggle Earth search shows the roads around the old camp almost the same, especially the back way in that used to be the main entrance and guard room prior to 1965. But as you say the whole area has changed beyond recognition. I loved Osnabruck, it was several classes above Sennelagar and Paderborn.

    If you want to get more information on this, Viscountess of Hinchingbrooke a.k.a. American Viscountess has done a whole five part series of this including these hedges. It absolutely captivated me as a Canadian with our ties to the UK. She married into the Montague family and they no longer live at Hinchingbrooke as they had to sell it in the 50s. They live in “England’s finest manor house” Mapperton. There is an explanation about the hedges which has something to do with an elephant leaping over. Yes there are ghosts.
