I missed orkney but I enjoyed living in kent with my friends and my family
I loved this video
I loved this place and loved lighthouses
I used to live in Orkney with my family from Christine
My ex teacher lived in this part of this place in orkney and I enjoyed growing up in orkney with my family and friends and I enjoyed growing up in the mainland
A lovely video and very informative. I agree that we should preserve as well as restore the glen. Our ancestors were among those evicted (to the Black Isle). We also enjoyed the games in the 1970s where my father competed.
Thanks for the nice comment. If you do not mind me asking. Who was your father? I may have known him as I am now in my late seventies.
@@dipinmedia Leslie Ferguson
The name does not ring a bell. I will ask my older brother when I next see him. He was one of the competitors in the obstacle race!
@@dipinmedia He was a Heavy, competing in the shot put and hammer. Also, he used to help Tommy Macrae at Fairburn for a while, if that helps.
The Nagas are offended being called goblins.
any dna on body that links to nowaday man
A very informative and enjoyable watch. Thank you.
*I am really praised for the views of these absolutely magnificents sceneries and their lively natural beauty. Thanks for making these videos.*
Great video Kate. Keep up the good work.
Thanks for sharing this very nice video. 😎
My family came from the strath.
Excellent and very informative video. I live in Marybank, and really need to spend more time up here. Thanks for the heads up.
We used to have a cottage at Orrinside. I see it is being massively extended now. I miss the place very much. It was a very tranquil spot.
Hi there... Nice video... Is it poss to through hike east to west?
Thanks. Yes it is my wife and did it when we were in our thirties. You need a map and my recollection is that there were sections with no clear track. Maybe there is one now though. It took us most of a day. You come out at Achnashellach on the way to loch Carron. A great walk along an historic route. Good luck.
Great watch, thanks & best wishes are passed.
Makes me want to go visit the place. When are the games usually.held?
I think they are held towards the end of July. If you google you should be able to find the date for 2025. I am sure you will enjoy them if you stay clear of the refreshment tent!! If you ignore my advice don’t try driving back down the Glen.
Thanks for uploading. Most interesting !
How delightful to listen to this woman speak!
Lovely voice❤
Ah the lordship ! I was here as a child my father always maintained we were direct descendants of the Lords of the isles. My great great grandfather was malcolm Macdonald of kilchoman.
Fabulous
Fascinating

I was a few times as near I could get with my car with my mother and her friend (me being in my sixtees and they in their eightees. Impressive view!

Global warming is fake
Very interesting with beautiful photography and lovely narration voice.
Fantastic and informative video Enjoyed the walk
Great video but you went from John of Islay at the start of the Hundred Years War to John of Islay at the end of the Hundred Years War in the blink of an eye.
Ive watch the series story of James Frazer, ive seen some scene ih here, while listening the soft narator voice and watching the video im imagining some scene of Outlander...the cruelty of the people in 13th century upto 17th, same as our situation in the Philippines in time of Spanish era for 300years....Glad i am in the 19th Century...
wow what a gem amazing garden's beautiful and presented so well you really put a lot of history into the video's thank you.
thank you for sharing what a beautiful walk and history thanks for making this
Remember doing a school field trip to the old man by boat from school on Gramsey in the late 60s. Please visit Orkney to soak in all the unique history of the many islands and the fantastic people living there. I was fortunate to visit many sites with my late father whilst living in Orkney. Treasured memories..
10:00 The English word for our Scots language 'Malie' is 'Fulmar' Scurrie is the correct Scots term for a 'Herring Gull'.
21:07 Not correct. Both Scots and English parliments were ajourned. (Not a permanent act) Then a new UK parliment was instated. Subject to various conditions in the treaty of Union. Pay attention to these facts - They are very important.
Amazing video - well done.
Many Scots have higher Neanderthal DNA than other cultures. There was a Nean-Sapien migration from the Levant. Skara Brae folk may have had higher Nean DNA in them.
Your video programmes are stunning.
U-boat or mine ! why so few survivors, surely their were some lifeboats.
It is a pretty wild part of the coast and there was a storm blowing from a direction they didn’t expect. I really don’t know though.
My dear Lady, your movie and explanation are amazing. Thank you so much for having delivered both of them. Greetings from Italy. All the best
Don't you find contradicting to the "global warming theory", that climate 5000 years ago was WARMER THEN TODAY, yet the SEA LEVEL WAS FARTHER AWAY then today. - very interesting ;) Side note2: According to recent studies The GREAT PYRAMID is actually 10.000+ years old. It is suggested this structure is pre=flooded (meaning over 11..600 ago)
Don’t know where you get the sea was farther away. It says here the sea encroached further and further INLAND because rising sea level and rising temperature.
@@RoxanneM- The information plate on the site says clearly: 5000 years ago the beach was a couple of km AWAY from the village. When the village was build it was ALREADY 3-5 degree warmer. ANd we know, they didn't build it ON THE BEACH, but in some distance, Do you understand? It was much warmer, jet the sea level was lower. Fact check it. The numbers will support it. And then sit calmly and think about it for a while, please, ok? ;)
The Ice Age held much of Earth's water trapped in ice. As this melted, the oceans rose. Now the Beaufort Gyre is set to release and bringing on the next ice age, we will see the sea levels dropping year by year.
Thank you
I can’t help but think that these unusual ( to us ) types of buildings were built for protection from the larger animals both flying and walking like dinosaurs, and the larger birds and such animals
Having spent my teenage and early 20s living near Ellon, I love to watch and hear your you tube films
Thank you. We really make the videos as a hobby. We are both in our late seventies and we learn so much in their making that I, at least, have taken for granted in the past.
That was a joy to watch!
Thanks for your comment.
Thank you for this lovely film!
Thank you too!
When was Doggerland the landbridge from Scandinavia to Scotland?
