Hey Adventurers! 👋 We’re doing our FIRST EVER live stream Q & A for our channel members on September 30th! We’ll be doing this once a month, become a member here to join 👉 ua-cam.com/users/theendlessadventurejoin
The Endless Adventure is there any reason why you vlogs are 3-4 weeks behind . Is this because you don’t want to bump in to your followers or some other reason . 👍🏻
Hiya. o/ I've got a bottle of 18-yr-old Glenfiddich you're welcome to try *without* lime if you're coming this way. John Smith's Smooth is the safe choice in a lot of pubs if you don't like bitter or lager and can't face three pints of Guinness.
Your vlogs are mini works of art. As a Brit it reminds me there is so much to see in our small cluster of islands (globally speaking) if we could depend on the weather who would go abroad! That being said we also benefit from cheap travel to Europe, which I have often enjoyed. Thanks for helping me plan where to go next x
Guys, I just have to tell you that I absolutely love watching your adventures! Your vlogs are so beautiful, very informative and extremely professional looking. Your joy & enthusiasm when experiencing new things is so infectious and as a Brit, I especially enjoy seeing you travel around the UK and enjoying all that this tiny island has to offer. I also applaud you for living the life that you want. So many would like to do what you do but choose not to - so good on you! Happy travelling! :o)
My Dad's family, we believe, came from the little town of Rothe, south from Elgin where the Rothe runs onto the Spey. A few distilleries there, Glen Rothe and Glen Grant among them.
Watched you two over the last two years and love your vids. I’m Welsh but have to say the Scots outdo us and the English/Irish for celebrating their heritage. Glad you enjoyed your day there and love the fact you love it here in the UK
Wayne Well in northern ireland has two distinct communities with two different national identities can't speak for england,but thats how it is in northern ireland.In the republic all the hallmarks of irish culture are strong the music and gaelic games except for the language which is much weaker then welsh .Half a million went to the fleadh(folk music festival) and its growing every year.
Yeah, stay clear of John Smiths beer. It's a bit like drinking the equivalent of mechanically reclaimed meat. There are so many fantastic brewers in the UK that make much superior beers and ales. Even the big supermarket chains will have at least a few local brews. To be honest, I'd sooner do without than have John Smiths
@@noname-mq6vw I'm from North Yorkshire. There's tap water with more flavour than John Smiths. It really is lowest common denominator stuff for people whose rhetorical big guns are using terms like snowflake and hipster. I think the words you may have been searching for, between getting startled by traffic lights and looking longingly at your cousins, were normal and tasteful.
We were at Cowal gathering in 2013, the last year pipe band competitions were held there. We were welcomed at the Clan Lamont tent like family (the Lamonts inhabited the Cowal peninsula, and I'm a Lamont). Haggis and chips! And we heard a rock band belt out, believe it or not, Country Roads! I'm going to take in Braemar next time I go. Btw, you missed one of the traditions though. After the games, the bands all march down the high street in Dunoon wearing silly wigs and or Groucho glasses. I've got a pic of one band wearing Elvis wigs!
Hi, I live in Scotland and highland dancing is our traditional dance that lots of us participate in. I do highland dancing myself, I hope you enjoyed your stay while at Scotland! Lots of Love (love your channel btw 💕)
Great video. Thank you. Love to be able to see the world through your eyes. Thoroughly enjoy your videos. I like how you combine the history and culture along with the local customs and food.
Awe! You just made those kids day. They will never forget how they met a youtube couple and were mentioned in their vlog. You guys are the sweetest. I enjoyed this video so much!
Our first , PM , in the Scottish Assembly happened to be named “John Smith “ my town, Airdrie named our local swimming pool the John Smith pool , there’s numerous statues in Scotland commemorating him .
So all 3 of my cats reacted very strongly to the bagpipes playing in this video. they were running around meowing like crazy xD I experienced that once before when watching "The Crown", but somehow I can't force the reaction by just playing random bagpipes music. Thank you for giving me that extra bit of entertainment ;)
glad to know the games are still going strong.. served in the Navy on board the USS Holland from 79-81 and got to witness one of those games.. lots of fun, food,,, and drinks ... I LOVED SCOTLAND!!!!
I was there in 1974 while stationed on the USS Los Alamos AFDB-7 in the Holy Loch. I loved it, great time were had by all way into the night for several nights.
Love your channel, love your enthusiasm for other cultures and foods. If your back in Scotland anytime try pick a time when the Edinburgh Military Tattoo is on you will love it.
As an Englishman living in Scotland I can honestly say you made the right choice in stovies but the poor choice in John Smiths 😂. Looking forward to the next episode! 👍
Just curious if you plan to ever meet up again with your two friends Nikita and James ( I think) who travelled with you in the very beginning of the channel..
If whisky is starting to grow on you, while you're there please try a good quality single malt, the difference can not be exaggerated. An Islay malt is usually more smokey because of the peat smoking process, but not necessarily better, just different. You never put ice or anything other than a small splash of still spring water in a malt. The water is good if you find it too harsh and actually can help differentiate the many subtleties of flavour.
Ach, I am so jealous that you were able to take in a typical Scottish Hieland (Highland) Game. Glad you enjoyed the Games. It was good to see that wee bit of home again. Enjoy the rest of your Scottish vacay. Slàinte.
I had to go to google to find out who Logan Paul was, then fell back in horror that it was that mouthy narcissistic unscrupulous nitwit with, aside for other venues, a following on his vlog channel of 15.7 million. Your heart breaks. Robert.
Youngsters These Days :( Sure there is still quite a bit good in this world. But it seems what ever happens. The world will always have people following such people and channels like Logan Paul.
I do highland dance I have done for 10 years! Hoping to go to coral at some point! The people I saw dancing where some that I knew! I’m so glad you enjoyed your time here in Scotland xx
Guys, your videos are fantastic, but for the sake of my sanity, please please please take a bite of your food when you get it! I've watched multiple videos where you sit there describing it for five minutes, and filming it from every angle as it goes cold. It's more than I can bare and sends me absolutely mental! Taste it first, then you can tell us allllll about it. There, I said it, now hopefully I won't have to throw my computer out of the window waiting for you to chomp a mouthful! Thanks a bunch ;)
What a fantastic video! You just keep putting out more and more amazing content. Two thumbs up. Getting accosted by that gang of Scottish youth was an amusing side adventure. :)
if you guys ever get the chance to come back, you should come to the Royal Highland Show in Ingliston, Edinburgh. Its every year in June, around 3-4 days usually the 20th onwards and its just brilliant. It started out as an agricultural trade show so there's a lot of animal auctions and shows, and farming gear but its open to the public and there's a lot of stuff like pipe band competitions, dog trials, hand crafts, food and loads more.
I love watching your videos of the U.K. I live in New England and also I’ve traveled abroad and all around the US. The funny thing is, I have not been to England or Scotland. Perhaps because we have so much in common. I was always bent on the exotic. However, I have to say that it’s so amazing and cool to see where most of New England’s culture is derived from. Watching these videos of your travels to the UK, has sparked a desire to go deeper and explore the historical and cultural side, and of course the natural beauty of these iconic lands. Having a solid and sound background in US and World History, it would be fitting to vacation at the UK and be fully immersed.😊
Hey! Nice movie and documentation! I was competing this day for Germany and I was not able to see all of the attractions around the Event. Thanks for Sharing (-:
John Smiths is an English ale called a bitter. There are many bitters and they are still popular despite the modern invasion of lager (beer). Great video. ATB MMMD
Wow! 151k subscribers, nice👌🏼 I’m thrilled that you are in Scotland, I would love to see more, l have been to an Orlando, FL highland fest, which looked very simulated to that. I love Scottish culture, I can’t wait for the next video 😆
Looks great guys - I first tried stovies at a scottish wedding this year, they brought big trays of it out near the end of the night after all the drinking and dancing, it was such a great late night snack.
I'm guessing you went into the stadium on the Friday? Cause the town is where to be on the Saturday, packed with people and stalls, this was the first game I missed! Missing my home town
Knowing how much you two wanted to go to the Highland Games I’m so happy it worked out for you. I would have watched the ducks and dancing, and eaten haggis dogs while listening to bagpipes in the background all day long! So much fun and could it have even been in a more beautiful location???
The Lake District in Cumbria is Like a mini Scotland and very easy to drive through on the way back down the M6 motorway. Keswick, Grassmere and Windermere then back on to the M6 going south...
Lived in Dunoon half my life, you all should of came before it got all corrupted by the council. Back in the 90’s it was the most amazing thing you would of ever seen. There would be well over a hundred bands and the events would continue well into the night and after all was done the pubs would be so packed that folks would have to drink there bevy in the streets. It was a great time to be a Scott then 🏴.
Be careful of the drink drive laws in Scotland. Very, very low tolerance and much lower than the rest of the UK. I think had you been breathalysed that day you would have been over the limit.
Ann Other I am not the only one who posted that comment, nor the only one who ‘liked’ same. I naturally assume it was afternoon drinking and that amount of alcohol takes a number of hours to leave the system. Many have been caught by the extremely low allowance in Scotland.
@ Ann Other M C's point is spot on and while Eric and Allison are clearly well travelled intelligent people it is possible the fact that Scotland has a different legal system and DUI limits from RUK could be overlooked. Simply put anyone basing their alcohol intake / recovery time on information given in RUK would be wrong while in Scotland. Given that whisky/ beer tasting is a big part of Scottish tourism chances are E & A will visit a distillery while they are here.
Fantastic! More ducks and sheepdogs please... You film a nice sheep btw. Do a compilation? I, along with most, watched One Man And His Dog (sheepdog trials) - I love collies ♥️
That looks like an amazing time. SO glad you got to meet some fans and if you're ever in San Diego, you can pick my brain anytime. It'd be good to share a whiskey or beer with you guys.
Hey Guys...I love your videos - and am watching all of them. You are both intelligent; enthusiastic and lovely - but really...a "bunch" of hills! ... a Bunch (lol smiley face)
On your blog you say you are from Midwest US originally. Do you have Scandinavian roots and do you like their traditional food and countryside? Seems Nordic culture is also about investing in life more than living to work. Hoping to travel to Europe in 2 years to live in colder winters, my Austrian heritage. Thanks for posting this channel and enjoy seeing the food. Well done on editing.
as for the food, haggis and chilli sauce is a relatively new combination, probably the last 10-15 years but its not bad, I still think you should have got the haggis burger though. Haggis is also a pretty good breakfast food, especially with egg of some kind, I usually do mine on toast or a posh roll with either a soft scrambled egg or a poached egg. Stovies are good stick to your ribs food, a peasant dish originally which is nowadays literally just potatoes boiled in either salty water or beef stock/boullion, with regular sausages cut or crumbles and onions, that's it. I've seen it done with the potatoes mashed and everything else mixed in, but my dad makes it in a pressure cooker so all of the flavours are forced into the potatoes and it comes out with a chunkier mash. Its just the best thing in the winter when your freezing your butt off, there's nothing like walking home from work/school in the snow and burning a layer of skin off of your mouth with hot Stovies tattie,
I thought I could be do "responsible viewing" and pace watching the 20 or so videos I hadn't caught up on of yours but alas, I'm terrible, and watched them all in a few hours...now I have to wait for new ones like a sucka, man!! 😄 Smh I told myself to stop and just rewatch your other videos but, I couldn't stop myself 😬😭 (151,672) (Tracking your growth, I'm excited to see you two finally getting the attention you deserve!)
Alba1970 The Scottish are more Irish than British. It was the Irish who invaded Northern Britain and wiped out most of the British tribes that lived there. This part of British history is conveniently forgotten. It has also been shown by D.N.A. testing that those in the western part of England, all the way up to Scotland, are more indigenous than the Scottish.Why the English allow others to get away with false history is beyond me. The film Braveheart is a typical example of this.
john gaskell Scottish tribes were not British ... the Picts were not celts they wrote there language akin to hieroglyphs and the Gaels did not conquer the Scottish tribes they merged with them like the Picts to found the kingdom of Alba (Ala-Pa) ... the britons were Welsh there kingdom in Scotland later merged with the kingdom of Alba (Ala-Pa) as did the Norse Kingdom
Alba1970 We’ve done ok together for a few hundred years and a couple of World Wars. About time the chip on the shoulder was filled in. Edit I’m half Scottish half English, if asked I’m British.
The beetroot and potato combo neeps and tatties. What is basically turnip and potato. Very traditional Scottish dish delicious. And haggis. Which is cute in the bladder of the animal. is primarily is made from a substance called offal. The insides of the animal.
We are going to Scotland at the end of aug too! Any tips on what transport/hotel to take or stay in if we go to cowal games and drink? Also what tickets are best for the view of the games or is it open? Thanks!!

Wayne Beasley as an English who’s moved to Wales, it seems they’re very proud of it and definitely the language.

I agree John Smiths has to be the up there with the worst thing I have ever tasted!
@@TimmyEliteBmx I take it that you never had Websters. Those were dark days.
no name, I've bought It in Florida liked it, My father drank it
John Smith is rank! That and Fosters was always a pound a pint as that’s the only way it would sell.
@@noname-mq6vw I'm from North Yorkshire. There's tap water with more flavour than John Smiths.

I was there working and spoke to the female she was lovely hope to see yous again next year
That part with the ducks was lit!
Drakes of Hazard, haha
Indian Runners. Always fun to watch :-)
Saying "lit" in Glasgow and you would get your jaw ripped!
I don't know what I was expecting, but I lost it when the ducks and collies appeared.
yeh i have a collie and that happens every year and collies are extremely popular here in dunoon cause there is a lot of farms in dunoon
The big question is, when travelling to Scotland.. did you take the high road, or the low road... Sorry had to say it!
Great video. Thank you. Love to be able to see the world through your eyes. Thoroughly enjoy your videos. I like how you combine the history and culture along with the local customs and food.
Really looking forward for some more Scotland. Great videos guys, keep up the good work.
I was the kid in the black Adidas t-shirt and it was a pleasure being in ur video 🤙😂
I love the way you both are so comfortable with the camera and make me feel as if I am right there with you two.
Awe! You just made those kids day. They will never forget how they met a youtube couple and were mentioned in their vlog. You guys are the sweetest. I enjoyed this video so much!
A Morson yes, they spent the next week telling the class about it
John Smiths is from Yorkshire, brewed in Tadcaster near York.
Our first , PM , in the Scottish Assembly happened to be named “John Smith “ my town, Airdrie named our local swimming pool the John Smith pool , there’s numerous statues in Scotland commemorating him .
The music with the marching ducks made it even funnier,hilarious!!😅👍💖
So all 3 of my cats reacted very strongly to the bagpipes playing in this video. they were running around meowing like crazy xD I experienced that once before when watching "The Crown", but somehow I can't force the reaction by just playing random bagpipes music. Thank you for giving me that extra bit of entertainment ;)
They have a great taste in bagpipe music ^^ that bagpipe scene in the crown was a fine piece indeed
Let's face it we all find them pretty offensive
glad to know the games are still going strong.. served in the Navy on board the USS Holland from 79-81 and got to witness one of those games.. lots of fun, food,,, and drinks ... I LOVED SCOTLAND!!!!
We're adopting you here in the U.K.! 💖😘
I was there in 1974 while stationed on the USS Los Alamos AFDB-7 in the Holy Loch. I loved it, great time were had by all way into the night for several nights.
Love your channel, love your enthusiasm for other cultures and foods. If your back in Scotland anytime try pick a time when the Edinburgh Military Tattoo is on you will love it.
Oh yah it is
Fantastic event to do
Meat + Potato + A stove = Stovies
Though a pot comes in handy too or else you'll just make a mess of your stove.
Stovies are fucking amazing, defo my second fav but mince tatties and doe balls are number 1
As an Englishman living in Scotland I can honestly say you made the right choice in stovies but the poor choice in John Smiths 😂. Looking forward to the next episode! 👍
Ahahahahaha! I can’t stop watching the ducks! Your editing is golden!
love your shows. struggling atm and you give me a little bit of escapism n hope for the future. keep it up!!! 😊x
I hope to be able to dance at Cowal someday, I recently got back into highland, it's super fun!
Guys if you get a chance head up north to Fort William and west to Ardnamurachan its fantastic scenery up there and great seafood
Strontian and Loch Sunart is just beautiful
And Aveymore
great festival. your video is excellent.
I admire you guys for trying the local food everywhere you go and If ever i saw you guys in the UK i would love to come over and say hello.
You have to go to the Military Tattoo held in Edinburgh every August!
Brilliantly fun episode guys. From food to local festival it was perfect. And no need for drone shots! :) Safe travels and Blessings, James and Kim
You guys are so kind 😃❤️❗️. Those kids loved you ! Your smiles warm up the coldest of days 👌. Be well and prosper 🖖
WHAT a rich culture we have in GREAT BRITAIN . thank you both well done :))
I like to watch blogs of Americans visiting Britain, but only come back to your channel! Down to earth wholesome goodness, thanks guys!
Just curious if you plan to ever meet up again with your two friends Nikita and James ( I think) who travelled with you in the very beginning of the channel..
matt boyd
Have watched you guys renovate renovated camper from the start, just going through the older food vlogs and found you came to my home town! Very cool
I like my stovies with a buttered bread roll
Also they’ve been a bit tight with the meat in that one!
So cool to see traditional culture like this and you guys really appreciating it, thumbs up!
I loved that! Those dancers... Wow. Springs of steel in their legs! Thanks for showing us the cowel x
If whisky is starting to grow on you, while you're there please try a good quality single malt, the difference can not be exaggerated.

Looks like a blast guys! Haggis dog looks... interesting. :P
Haggis pizza is amazing you’d think it was spicy beef 👌🏻
You guys are so fun to watch. Love these adventures in Scotland! Can’t wait to get there someday. 😀😀 My kids would have loved those rides!
Great video from Scotland! Can't wait for more videos you guys are great.......I would try haggis
Braemar Games, Pitlochry and massed piping ❤ Scotland 🏴 Cymru forever ❤😊
Ach, I am so jealous that you were able to take in a typical Scottish Hieland (Highland) Game. Glad you enjoyed the Games. It was good to see that wee bit of home again. Enjoy the rest of your Scottish vacay. Slàinte.
Loved it .You took me back a lot of years . Have been in Canada for over 60 years.
Oh, man... Logan Paul? Those poor children.
I had to go to google to find out who Logan Paul was, then fell back in horror that it was that mouthy narcissistic unscrupulous nitwit with, aside for other venues, a following on his vlog channel of 15.7 million. Your heart breaks. Robert.
Youngsters These Days :( Sure there is still quite a bit good in this world. But it seems what ever happens. The world will always have people following such people and channels like Logan Paul.
All we Talk About
Logan Paul
Tell me about it, i have to go to the same school as those knobheads
Laura Elle don’t worry they are different now
I do highland dance I have done for 10 years! Hoping to go to coral at some point! The people I saw dancing where some that I knew! I’m so glad you enjoyed your time here in Scotland xx
This was the only highland games I ever saw, more than a decade ago. In Dunoon as well. Happy you got to see that nice place.
Guys, your videos are fantastic, but for the sake of my sanity, please please please take a bite of your food when you get it!

I love watching your videos of the U.K. I live in New England and also I’ve traveled abroad and all around the US. The funny thing is, I have not been to England or Scotland. Perhaps because we have so much in common. I was always bent on the exotic. However, I have to say that it’s so amazing and cool to see where most of New England’s culture is derived from.

Awesome vlog, as always! Definitely the best travel vloggers out there!
Love the Highland games. I've been to one where I live in Canada, but it would be epic to go to one in Scotland. Thanks for sharing!
if scenery is what you want "The Queen's view" at pitlochry is a must. Just up the road from my previou recommendation, the Edradour distillery.
Simon Templar in dunoon just now
Hey! Nice movie and documentation! I was competing this day for Germany and I was not able to see all of the attractions around the Event. Thanks for Sharing (-:
Indian running Ducks are by far the coolest ducks on the planet. Nature has a scence of hummer. Welcome to Scotland.
John Smiths is an English ale called a bitter. There are many bitters and they are still popular despite the modern invasion of lager (beer). Great video. ATB MMMD
Another great segment. Sigh, I wish I was back in Scotland. Had the best time there and will return in a heart's beat!
I lived in the Uk for almost 7 years and I didn't know about Cowal Gathering. Looks amazing
Wow! 151k subscribers, nice👌🏼 I’m thrilled that you are in Scotland, I would love to see more, l have been to an Orlando, FL highland fest, which looked very simulated to that. I love Scottish culture, I can’t wait for the next video 😆
I danced at the Cowal games in 1982 What a memory brought back Thanks guys
Looks great guys - I first tried stovies at a scottish wedding this year, they brought big trays of it out near the end of the night after all the drinking and dancing, it was such a great late night snack.
I'm guessing you went into the stadium on the Friday? Cause the town is where to be on the Saturday, packed with people and stalls, this was the first game I missed! Missing my home town

The Lake District in Cumbria is Like a mini Scotland and very easy to drive through on the way back down the M6 motorway. Keswick, Grassmere and Windermere then back on to the M6 going south...
that was me and tam! was great to meet you😊
You own a mansion? (That joke might be offensive if it turns oot you have a speech impediment :/ )
Another great video.
Don't ever stop.
Lived in Dunoon half my life, you all should of came before it got all corrupted by the council. Back in the 90’s it was the most amazing thing you would of ever seen. There would be well over a hundred bands and the events would continue well into the night and after all was done the pubs would be so packed that folks would have to drink there bevy in the streets. It was a great time to be a Scott then 🏴.
Cullen skink was my favorite thing I tried there! Soo good!
Love Scotland. Love Scottish people.
Here for the Hip Hop Duckies! 🐥That was too much! - Trevor
Comedy mixed up with history and culture! 😊👍
I really like ur happy videos. Truly what’s great about UA-cam. Always cheer me up some, ur a lovely couple.
Be careful of the drink drive laws in Scotland. Very, very low tolerance and much lower than the rest of the UK. I think had you been breathalysed that day you would have been over the limit.
You don't even know how long they were there.

This is a good comment, Scottish laws are very strict the advice from the police is basically don't drink at all if you are considering driving.
@Nim Boo ( a year later but) One pint will put you over the limit
Fantastic! More ducks and sheepdogs please... You film a nice sheep btw. Do a compilation? I, along with most, watched One Man And His Dog (sheepdog trials) - I love collies ♥️
John smiths is brewed in Tadcaster North Yorkshire....like most British beers these days it’s owned by a foreign company. ( Heineken ).....
Haggis is awesome, so many different types, each good butcher has there own recipe, highland dancing,
You do such a great job in telling the best places to go and stay in Britain! Love the U.K.!
Looks like fun times!
That looks like an amazing time. SO glad you got to meet some fans and if you're ever in San Diego, you can pick my brain anytime. It'd be good to share a whiskey or beer with you guys.
Cullen skink is good, you can pick it up in most super markets as well over there.
Great video. Loved the ducks - epic!
The swarming by the 'Neds' less impressive.... ;)
'internal organs, I didn't grow up eating them'. that made me laugh out loud.
Hey Guys...I love your videos - and am watching all of them. You are both intelligent; enthusiastic and lovely - but really...a "bunch" of hills! ... a Bunch (lol smiley face)
Hey guys, hope all is going well. Whenever you have viewers stopping you, include that footage, we would like to see and hear what people have to say.
On your blog you say you are from Midwest US originally. Do you have Scandinavian roots and do you like their traditional food and countryside? Seems Nordic culture is also about investing in life more than living to work. Hoping to travel to Europe in 2 years to live in colder winters, my Austrian heritage. Thanks for posting this channel and enjoy seeing the food. Well done on editing.
Great video from Scotland! Can't wait for more videos.
as for the food, haggis and chilli sauce is a relatively new combination, probably the last 10-15 years but its not bad, I still think you should have got the haggis burger though. Haggis is also a pretty good breakfast food, especially with egg of some kind, I usually do mine on toast or a posh roll with either a soft scrambled egg or a poached egg. Stovies are good stick to your ribs food, a peasant dish originally which is nowadays literally just potatoes boiled in either salty water or beef stock/boullion, with regular sausages cut or crumbles and onions, that's it. I've seen it done with the potatoes mashed and everything else mixed in, but my dad makes it in a pressure cooker so all of the flavours are forced into the potatoes and it comes out with a chunkier mash. Its just the best thing in the winter when your freezing your butt off, there's nothing like walking home from work/school in the snow and burning a layer of skin off of your mouth with hot Stovies tattie,
I thought I could be do "responsible viewing" and pace watching the 20 or so videos I hadn't caught up on of yours but alas, I'm terrible, and watched them all in a few hours...now I have to wait for new ones like a sucka, man!! 😄
Smh I told myself to stop and just rewatch your other videos but, I couldn't stop myself 😬😭

My British brain is having trouble computing hot dog, haggis and sweet chilli sauce....confused!
your brain may be melting because Scots are not British or we soon won't be .... our culture is separate from English culture we are nothing alike
Alba1970 The Scottish are more Irish than British. It was the Irish who invaded Northern Britain and wiped out most of the British tribes that lived there. This part of British history is conveniently forgotten. It has also been shown by D.N.A. testing that those in the western part of England, all the way up to Scotland, are more indigenous than the Scottish.Why the English allow others to get away with false history is beyond me. The film Braveheart is a typical example of this.
john gaskell Scottish tribes were not British ... the Picts were not celts they wrote there language akin to hieroglyphs and the Gaels did not conquer the Scottish tribes they merged with them like the Picts to found the kingdom of Alba (Ala-Pa) ... the britons were Welsh there kingdom in Scotland later merged with the kingdom of Alba (Ala-Pa) as did the Norse Kingdom
Alba1970 We’ve done ok together for a few hundred years and a couple of World Wars. About time the chip on the shoulder was filled in. Edit I’m half Scottish half English, if asked I’m British.
Never heard about those games 'till you guys mentioned it few videos ago, this thing is awesome!
I beg you to visit bamburgh castle and the village as a whole in Northumberland. You won't regret it , its the most stunning place in the country.
The beetroot and potato combo neeps and tatties. What is basically turnip and potato. Very traditional Scottish dish delicious. And haggis. Which is cute in the bladder of the animal. is primarily is made from a substance called offal. The insides of the animal.
Awesome! I wish more men would follow tradition and do the Sword Dance and Highland Fling. Military tradition.
We are going to Scotland at the end of aug too! Any tips on what transport/hotel to take or stay in if we go to cowal games and drink? Also what tickets are best for the view of the games or is it open? Thanks!!
