    The UA-cam AI put The Hoof GP on my feed, and I've been binge-watching Graeme for weeks. I went over and watched James' sculptures, which are amazing, and then I decided to come here and was not disappointed.
    My family has roots in Scotland. I have visited once but I would go again in a heartbeat. We went in November of 2010, my 15 yr old daughter who could be more melodramatic than any movie star, and me.
    We were in Stirling, stopped at Drover's Inn up there where Loch Lommond is a trickle, Ft. William, Malaig, Castle Tioram as the tide was rushing in, Skype, Ulapool, Inverness, yes with a nice stint staring at Loch Ness in hopes of seeing the monster, Granton-on-Spey where we ran into an Inn owner who was originally from our hometown in California USA (trippy experience), and then to Edinburgh, where my daughter's first words were, "this place looks like something out of Oliver!" (the musical version of Oliver Twist). We walked all over Edinburgh and were considerably less impressed with the castle because Stirling Castle made such a great impression.
    My now 26 year old daughter (time flies like you can't imagine-hug your kids often) is a history major, theater minor (shocker), and holds close the memories of our wild Scottish adventure, though at the time, she would dramatically mourne, "why did you draaaag me half way around the woooorld?!" (My response was always, "because I wanted to torture you).
    I greatly enjoy the way you share the Scottish history and inventions and such. Several times I have literally laughed out loud. Which is both good and bad. Laughter is like good medicine but I just had surgery a couple of weeks ago to remove 2 tumors (both benign, Thank the Lord!) and laughing disturbs the area of the incision and makes me very sore. This doesn't keep me from laughing.
    Thank you so much for sharing your Scotland Unplugged with the rest of us!
    DO MORE OF IT!!

    Hi the hoof GP sent me and I most say I loved the history lesson on William Bruce especially since I'm Irish/Scottish as well as a few other races. Also several years ago my mothers, mother was telling me about our family and said we were actually related to him and although I have no evidence on the spider I was told an old family story/family legend about him and the box with his heart if you ever want to hear it.
