I searched this year in particular cuz I was studying abroad (Baylor in Great Britain 2002) and It was my first time in Europe however this event occurred near the end of my time. I distinctly remember how wet, cold, and misty/rainy it was that weekend although this took place in early August. Being from a much warmer climate, Houston, TX, and never really traveling north..I was more of a 'beach ppl' than 'ski ppl' ... I had to run into a jacket shop earlier in the day to buy something to keep warm. The queen arrival was such a treat and my overall experience was like a 'walk through history'. I've been privileged to return to europe many times since then, in all seasons with my wife and family but that first one takes the cake, as if it happened yesterday and I can detail it out day by day. Perhaps it's b/c that program, Baylor in Great Britain, was one of the more popular study abroad programs at Baylor however, after the events of 9/11/2001, the usually group of 200+ students of years prior (I had friends who went and recommended the program) was just 75 in the summer of 2002. Aprox 55 girls to 20 guys...I was one of the guys ;-)...and met my future wife on that trip....at least that's what she says ;-)!

For a wee while i was the next door neighbour to Brians Grandad. We got on great together. My partner commented "you two are like termites from a previous life", due to our mutual wood addiction 😂.On his desk was a picture of him as a young man. Facially he and Brian both looked identical. I had the pleasure of meeting Brian at his granddads memorial service. I was so impressed on how fit Brian was and could visualise how others follow him. Such an ambassador for Scotland and the Black Watch.

Although the quality is not up to modern video standards, I do like the performance better. Modern Edinburgh Tattoos seem to feature more pop music and less martial pomp and ceremony. This seems to be increasing as the years go by...

Agree - I think it is important to keep Edinburgh tattoo a ceremony for Scottish martial pomp and ceremony. That's what everyone comes to see and impresses the tourists. Maybe they worry about not being accused of not being inclusive enough to the LGBT and ethnicities? People can see the pop stuff in any city so we should stick to what we do best.

It's quite loathsome to hear "for the sake of Auld Lang Syne". Put into English, that means "For the sake of for the sake of old times". Sad. 😞
