Like his mother and grandmother, King of Scots Charles was always welcome in Scotland and they summered yearly!

[@francescarose1453]

@@Valhalla88888 King Charles is our King, as of right. There is a separate Crown for Scotland because King James VI of Scotland, United both thrones that he inherited. King James of Scotland inherited the Thrones of: Scotland (a Kingdom) And England + Wales and Ireland (his second Kingdom). King James therefore created the United Kingdom. I don't understand why people make that statement as Scotland is an equal Kingdom, in terms of Royalty. I know you were making a positive statement but I find it strange. We don't say eg "England always welcomes the King and the Royal Family". We are an equal Kingdom or possibly the main one, because of our Scottish King. My comment is an informative one, not a criticism. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇬🇧🇬🇧

⁠@ijig4427, I’m from a Commonwealth Country & I’m proud to be a member of the Imperial Family for the past 83yrs. How wonderful to have the traditional Colourful Pomp & Pageantry which the British Royal Family do the Best at Celebrations. Its History & Traditions that have been carried out for over a Thousand Years celebrating Charity, Unity, Patriotism & Progress. Long live the Monarchy who work tirelessly serving Countries & Nations with Dedication & Contributions to creating a Better World. Their Service is purely serving the People wholeheartedly especially the Lesser off & Needy with Remarkable Successful Results. The Working Royals Devote Full Time Dutiful Service for Progress bringing in Revenue thru Tourism, Trade, Defence, Unity, & Fellowship. Without them, the Country would have an elected President/Prime Minister who is a Career Politician more interested in Self/Party promotion Govt. Control, rather than National Unity & Equality. God Save the King/Queen, & All Royal Family Members, the Commonwealth Countries & Allies.🇬🇧🇦🇺🇬🇪🍀🌹💖💞🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 🙏🙏
