Historic Scotland free weekend.

Thanks to conifer for pointing out that Historic Scotland are having a free weekend, so I should perhaps correct never having been into Edinburgh castle despite having lived here for thirteen years.

This looks fascinating too, but unfortunately I'm not in Orkney.

This is exciting stuff. See how many sites you can cram in during a day. I used to laugh at that terrible affliction called 'museum head' after too much input.

I dropped a few lines on Wallace's sword in your old post, in case you hadn't already seen it.

Yes, thank you. Even in the worst case, it seems to be a lot older than I would have previously guessed.

Thank you.

Thanks for the reminder, I love those weekends.

Oh, you're very welcome. It'll help remind me as well.

If you miss it, or would prefer a quieter time, I can take two guests in on my membership.

I want to do the sites in Orkney sometime.

I'll try to treat this as some sort of deadline. I may actually get round to it that way. If I don't . . . thank you very much, I'll be in touch.

Great opportunity. I did exactly that one year and it wasn't as busy as I expected. Also got to some of the castles in the outskirts of Edinburgh which was nice. I was dragged around most of these as I was growing up, but it is nice to actually *choose* to go to them. njoy. Remember the 1 o'clock gun.

I should get up early. I should perhaps help at a Beltane busking thing later in the day, and then of course there's a tower block being dynamited too.

Sounds a far more interesting weekend in waiting than mine :)

You'll see the tower fall on TV, over and over again.
