    Is Eleanor banned from every tour in Scotland.. do tour guides tremble in fear when she appears, notepad in hand?

    I did this tour several years ago. Eleanor put far more life and interest into her presentation than the guy we had.

    To be fair this is an accurate description of the guided tour I had in 2012, where halfway round you were left wondering, why am I down here?

      Same here, from 2008. Except I did find it worthwhile, if not exactly exciting.

    I went on a tour of Mary King's Close because my mum wouldn't let me a do a ghost tour. I'm assuming the tour guide was an out of work actor because he was very enthusiastic.

    This is the first time I heard of Mary King’s Close, so I had to look it up. It sounds interesting, but the ghost stories heaped on top are rather like knocking down my apartment building, burying the basement, then telling wild tales of the gruesome goings-on that used to take place.

    Is that Craig with a man bun? Or is Craig a female name in Scotland (in which case it would just be a bun)? It's a male name in the US.

    • @nictheartist
      @nictheartist 2 роки тому +5

      She just plays the character of a male your guide called Craig. As the character, she does refer to herself as " a boy". I live in the UK and have, thus far, only known it as a name for a male.
