You know, you can be a historian without having a degree in History. You share and give information. You talk about the history of things. You're actually quite knowledgable. I would say you're a rather unique historian.
Well said!! ☺️
Hi
I grew up in Edinburgh for 45 years before moving to Western Australia.
As far as I ever knew ..Arthur’s Seat was known as the “sleeping Lion” as the skyline view from old duddingston village exactly resembles a Lion.
I and some likeminded girlfriends climbed that hill at the age of 17 in the dark. As dawn broke we , after checking for sheep and rabbit poop, dipped our faces in the dew atop Arthur’s Seat. Legend was that you would be endowed with great beauty. It didn’t happen. But it was fun.
Thank you for your interesting report on Arthur’s Seat. Love your channel, do more! Do More! It’s great. :)
Love that you brought up the parrot basket!
Glad someone got the reference. 😂. Hope you are keeping well.
I watch these videos to remember our trip to edinburgh in 2022. It's great to see these.
Hi Clan just wanted to say thank you for you're vlogs as we visited Edinburgh this week and they were very helpful indeed so thank you 👏 much appreciated and what a fantastic place Edinburgh is we will be back for sure.
Interesting theory of the Gaelic Tony. We all can grab the one we like. Me..I saw the dragon straight away lol!
Always love your videos ❤❤
Was on my agenda in January but never made it. Hope to get there if I go back. Also interested in Stirling. Good, informative, video!
One of the old legends says that King Arthur sat atop of this crag and contemplated a battle plan.
LOVE Arthur's Seat and Salsbury Crags. I've been studying them for a while. Just love the history. Thank you for sharing.
I love hearing about old legends. Thanks for the fun video Tony.
A really interesting vid Tony. The name of Arthur's Seat is the ultimate legend in Edinburgh and the mystery surrounding it is one of its many attractions 👍
But never forget... "Fell." #DidYeAye
Congratulations on having a new boy!
He is not quite here yet. Due in July.
@@ClanBroonford how exciting!
love your videos and learn so much from you Tony so much. I was there at Arthur seat in 2019 and so breath taking
I am surprised there isn't Arthur's Seat Morning Dew serum available for purchase to help folks maintain glowing skin.... I would give it a go ..😉
My goodness, what a lovely day! I wish I were there with you.
I love the notion of an 8th of May festival in in Hollyrood and the crag. Imagine all the lovely lasses of Edinburgh and beyond gathered together for a nice walk and a splash of dew. It sounds much better than the chat up in pubs!
Cheers, Tony, to you and yours. When is your wee bairn expected?
It's an ancient giant petrified Tree stump
I grew up and used to olay in arthur seat and never heard if any dragons it is a lion and the well used to work itvhad metal mugs attached to chains the water you hear us coming down from dunsapie loch it st Margarets then it goes down to duddingston loch where there is a spring flowing crystal clear ice cold water
congrats on 15K subscribers Tony!!!
I think it's a cool name.for an extinct Volcano 😄I'm going to Edinburgh in November, and this is top.of my list to visit.Thank you for your awesome videos Tony 😊
I always thought Arthur Seat got its name because of the shape of a lion and that how the extinct volcano got its name.
Top class video Tony thank you you are credit to Edinburgh and to scottish tourism 😊
Tony....How's u keeping?
How's your health?
How's the family?
Any news on the new born to clan broonford ?
You guys are having a boy?! CONGRATULATIONS! When is the baby due?
I wish we could've walked up Arthur's Seat when we were there in 2018, but time we were going to do that, legs and feet were done. 😢 "Hiking" was not going to be an option after walking 100 miles+/-, over the prior 2 weeks. Definitely next time though!
