This infamous event from Scottish History formed part of the inspiration for the Red Wedding in Game of Thrones. 
The young Master of Threave, William 6th Earl of Douglas was only 14 when he inherited his father's titles.  But by the age of 16, he had been tried and executed for plotting against the King.  How did that happen? 
Let me explain...

Won’t be missing those 21.30 low fly passes over next week. Nor the 22.52 fireworks.

Edinburgh Castle, seen from the east, looming menacingly over the city's historic Grassmarket. The castle occupies the summit of an ancient plug of volcanic rock and is visible for tens of miles in every direction. More pics and info: undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/edi

Everyone in Edinburgh enjoy that low flying jet at 21.30? Evening light outside is so low now, that I doubt anyone saw it. Bet those with small people aren’t laughing…

I forgot.

In addition to the 23.00 fireworks, we have random military aircraft performing low fly pasts, across the city centre and Edinburgh Castle in the evenings too.

Good-grief!

I think it’s now time for the Edinburgh Royal Military Tattoo to seriously rethink the late night use of fireworks at the end of their August shows.

They are an absolute nuisance for the sleeping residents of central Edinburgh.

Moving to a new home ❤️
I have always wondered why I had to be born with so much beauty, so much charisma and I might also add vast intelligence. Yes, it’s the cross I have to carry with me, a constant reminder to my beloved ones that I’m too good for them. So I had no choice but to buy Edinburgh Castle for 3 pips so I can look down at them from atop my throne.
