Thank you Dan - I’m off to Edinburgh with my family for a half term road trip, bit of a trek from where I live in Winchester but I’m so looking forward to exploring another historic City like the one I call home. Funnily enough, I’ve booked an apartment just off the Royal Mile but with views of Arthur’s seat so by the sound of it, I’m off to a good start.
Hey Dan, James Stewart, the 1st Earl of Moray, was the half brother of Mary Queen of Scots, I believe. Did you see her biopic? If so, was the characterisation of their early friendliness true, do you think? I feel like Mary QoS was a hot mess as a ruler so I'm wondering if Moray provided a bit of stability? Cool article, by the way! 😃👍

Jealous of your bath game.
Medieval art....well any art.....and stained glass is my jam so thanks for that!
Interesting read. I've not been to Edinburgh since I went with school some 37 years ago. Could be a long weekend away on the cards.

I can't wait until March for my trip.
