Gaudd needs to know that this is about remembering the young lads who died for us. Politics takes a back seat on Rememberence day. I didn't believe in hitler's politics but the young lads who died in his despotic name need remembrance too.

@jimusgrimus Almost. Its a lament for the largest, best trained, best equipped Scottish army, that was slaughtered by a smaller, worse equipped, worse trained, scratch English army. This had been raised by the Queen while The king was away in France with his best troops. The battle occured at Flodden which is in Yorkshire, several hundred miles into England which the Scots had invaded.

And some attention to those field medics who try to heal the living and still must comfort the dying. A hard life for one who cherishes life above all, they must always see the hurt and death inflicted by other living beings. Thank you all.

@keirfree You said that no-more than 1.3% of Scots of 'ever spoke Gaelic' which is a ludicrous statement. That is what I commented on. I also said that people who 'actively campaign on behalf of the Scots language" care for the status of Gaelic too. That tends to be true right from Chris Grieve down to modern campaigners and members of the SLA. As to signs etc well just because you don't agree with how money being spent on Gaelic is spent it doesn't mean you beleive money shouldn't be spent on

@BertrumPantyshield I would despute that it was a "Raid" with the entire Scots nobilty and the king present. You're right on the geography tho, my mistake. But The quality of the Scots army was generally better and they held and fought from the high ground. If it was a raid, they should have legged it back into Scotland at the first sign of resistance.

@keirfree There never was a clan system? I’ll dispense with insults unlike you. Sir Walter Scott embellished certain aspects of highland life but there defiantly was a clan system and he didn’t invent the kilt. Originally there was the Feileadh Bhreacain and the Feileadh Mor but not the modern kilt we see today

per se. Should resources be used ensuring the likes of the Borders General Hospital has a Gaelic language plan etc? I'd say no. There is no practical use or need for it and the area has no Gaelic heritage in real historical times anyway. We are a Scots speaking area. However that doesn't mean I don't support the promotion of Gaelic in other ways particularly in its heartland.

@Gillmeister2465 Well there's no doubt that the Black Watch has some famous battle honours and my mums cousins husband was in them during WW2. However it angers me that the English have used the bravery of Scotsmen as cannon fodder. Imagine taking the Kings shilling and going to fight in the Crimea only to return to deiscover that your family have been evicted in preference to sheep. Now thats a big thanks for fighting for 'your country'.

It was written about Scottish soldier killed by the English soldiers it should not be used in this way, I know times have changed but this is a Scottish remembrance tune not British. It would be much better/suitable to play I vow to thee my country.

@keirfree "Go get Educated,, Gaelic is about as Native to Scotland, as is haggis" Stop throwing in deflections. Again you said that Gaelic has never been spoken by more than 1.3% of Scots. That is complete and utter nonsense. Even within reasonably modern times it is nonsense. The ancestors of both modern Gaelic and Scots can be traced at least to the middle of the first millenium AD which makes them pretty traditional here. Though that wasn't my point anyway!
