Blessings, my Scottish Detectorist friend. Thanks for clueing me in on your Scotland Tours channel. I heard you make mention of it several times, but I always forget to go and check it out. This time, you made it easy for me. Blessings, from this old man in Tennessee.

I really enjoyed my first 10 day visit to Edinburgh. I am currently working on a suite of fifty etchings of some of the sites and people of the city. If I get back I will consider your services for some scouting around for more images further afield.

Watched it already, John! It was a beautiful tour making me wish I could book a tour myself. It did upset me to see the graffiti on the walls, though! So shameful for someone to do that to such beautiful buildings. Love your knowledge about everything Scotland! Thank you!

Aww thanks Deb. I know the graffiti really really annoys me. If it were up to me I’d bring back the gallows!!! Much appreciated

Hey Johnny! Quite some time ago I got a video from Visit Scotland tours in my YT feed. Must been at least a year ago maybe more. I recognised your voice and subbed. Quite a pleasant surprise I might add. I’m subscribed to the Scottish Detectorist from back in the 3,3 K subscribers days. When was this? Two, maybe two and a half years ago? Well, just to let you know. KZbin sometimes does manage to put two and two together and feeds the VST videos to the people that watch or are subbed to the SD channel. Best of luck John. Going to watch beautiful Edinburgh now. Cheers! 🍀👍🤞

Hi John, everyone here seems to love it, but I do think it is missing something., and I guess I'll get some hate for saying it; but I do mean well: To me it sounds a bit to scripted and slow in telling in my opinion. this means that i lost the attention within 2 minutes. I am missing the enthusiasm I see in when you tell a small little side story about the ruler on a coin you find , which seems genuine at that moment and the way of telling the small stories in that way makes it really interesting. I find the story telling at your visitscotland tours to boring, and I hope you can bring some of that enthusiasm from the detecting channel over to your tours channel , that would probably make it way more interesting.

[@thescottishdetectorist]

Thanks Peter. It’s a working progress. I’m not overly happy with the video, but I just need to start getting content out and I’m sure I’ll grow into it! Thanks
