Yes. Brave woman or completely commited to tbe Jacobite cause.

Lost two english reivers 😂😂

Very attractive man and fascinating info thank you 💚

Long live the 13th Kentucky Volunteer Infantry Regiment. Many Roys and Clayborn men from Russell Springs made up the ranks of that Free Man's Army. Jesus Died to make men holy, let us die to make men free

We refer to ourselves as Scotch Irish most Americans refer to us as Appalachian, Hillbilly, or Red Neck. We have been here a long time

Congrats on the new wheels, Bruce. I love my EV too.

Im Still lovin yer work bigman, your recounting of Scottish history is second to none, keep up the good work pal

I am always fascinated by anything you say about the Border, because my family is reputed to have ancestors from there. Here is a link to one of the most fascinating things about the Border: some thing I hope you will cover someday - www.iosrjournals.org/iosr-jhss/papers/Vol.26-Issue6/Series-10/B2606102242.pdf

Thanks for the video Bruce, loving learning Murray history at the moment!

I hope I live long enough to go one one of your tours! So informative!

ty my kin are the McDonnell's of glengarry and clan Anderson

I'm doing research on Elden Ring and a lot of it has led me to Mary Queen of Scots, her history, Edinburgh, and of course now Stirling. Just keep getting linked to your videos. lol.

I have heard of him, but never really knew much about him.

oh...I had to listen twice to discern that you said "second heaviest set of BELLS in the world"

5 good videos in the series - deep in my past there was a History Teacher called sandy Pittendreigh who taught us this kind of material (mid-1970s). Unfortuntaely, I as only at that school for 2 years, then went on to a' Grammer' School where it reverted to French Revolution, Russian revolution and WW2. Scottish History was far more interesting - the Grammer School was in the grips of neo-Marxist revisionism! My own background is Viking, but from a wave of economic migrants in the 1860s!!

Living vicariously watching your vids Bruce. This is as close as I'll ever get to the Ol' Sod.

Love your videos. One of my bucket list items, not that I’m going soon, is to come to Scotland and take one of your tours. As a descendant of the MacGregors, especially love the clan histories. Thank you!

Thanks for sharing the many experiences of history that happen on the land. Land over there experiences far more than is recorded in history, and a lot is forgotten.

OK, so you are born in Scotland, but your skin is a bit darker than some... So What? Tell him to stuff himself. I'm pretty white, but I say history is history and color has nothing to do with it.

You do love Scotland, don’t you Bruce. Not only do you entertain, your passion continues to shine through. Have a great week 🌞

Always nice to see a bit of Oban…..

Ript the pish😂

I hated history lessons at school, now im hooked! thank you for making it really interesting

I moved away over a year ago, but starting in the town i was born and raised in gave me a massively unexpected burst of homesickness. I need to make a plan to go and visit Oban again!

cheers for the info Bruce, heading up to Oban in June

Great show tonight Bruce! Just got home, so will have to watch this tomorrow. Sorry for being late - but at least you got to have a good start on that first beer! ;)

you should have gone hybrid the charging gets annoying fast on them electric hings.

Going up there later today. Well Inveraray to Kilchurn and St Conan Kirk. Beautiful places and doing a trip round there is always a pleasure. You should get some sponsorship from Visit Scotland for what you do.

I would like to know the history of the McInnes clan please. As I see a lot of McInnes tartan being worn. All I know is that they were destroyed by the Macdonalds. But is this true?

Thank you Bruce for another awesome video. I was wondering though, have you ever done any videos on the history of towns like Killberry, Campbeltown & Southend, on the Kintyre Peninsula? I'm curious on this area due to ancestors. My five times great-grandfather Dugal MacNaughton was born in Campbeltown in 1744.

I have Dal Riata all over my family tree, including Somerled. Irish and Scots

WHAT YOU ARE NOT SAYING ABOUT CONTINUED SLAVERY IN AFRICA AND MIDDLE EAST TODAY. Watched this video from beginning to end. Disappointed and shameful entitled,politically correct, attention seeking and victim attempt to claim future reparations? Line up after the Jews of the Exodus, Scottish Clearances or Uighurs of China - no comparison! Only thing missing was a kilt and Scottish lament played on a mournful bagpipe. Slavery is repulsive. White folks were the last in and first out. Ever heard of Wilberforce and Pitt? But that does not fit the PC narrative does it. 19:04 So Arabic Muslim and African slavery continues to exist as it always has? Crickets. So the baloney sandwich tour with effected Scottish performance speaks for itself. No doubt David Livingston is an anathema to marxist-socialist folks who benefit obesely from UK labor benefit programs, welfare, dietary and educationally. Enjoy the benefits and perks of Western World Democracy Social Programs and Free Market Capitalism until it collapses by traitors from within, then God help us all including dependent 2nd and 3rd world folks. Looking forward to a documentary that discusses African Independence state failures although left with democracy, infrastructure, balanced budget etc. Africa was cursed with Tribalism long before whitey arrived. Look to India, the largest English speaking Democracy in the World and compare. Thank God you were rescued by Scotland and if ungrateful, you could always return from whence you originate from. Not likely. If anthropologists are correct and humans originated in Africa, then slavery begins and ends in Africa? “TIS” - Canadian born in Scotland who has traveled the World

Argyll....the home of my Campbells and MacIvers.

This video reinforced my desire to revisit Scotland to see the WILD west of Scotland. Thank you for it.

Wow that background of those mountains when you're walking on that beach 🏖️ Guess Scotland isn't all deep fried mars bars and buckfast

Thanks for your lectures 👍

Where do you think the power for the EV comes from? It’s HIGHLY likely from Grangemouth. Great content all the same 😂

For us Americans, what is a mutchkin?

Thank you for the tour.

Thanks maybe I'll go next year

Another wonderful video. Thank you!

EV9, very nice, i have the EV6

Nice little whistle stop tour. As someone who will never get there, I really appreciate these trips. Hello from rainy Oregon, US.

I have a serious question.ln many families there are stories of our ancestors leaving our Homeland and going to another country for various reasons . I wonder if your family had any stories about why they stayed in Scotland? 😮

Even though my family left Scotland (Orkney) 60-ish year ago is still feel like a Sutherland and honour the name.

the final one should be scotland itself.

Omg that comment about Fife …..I was crying laughing …no offence to anyone from there but it was just the delivery !!! brilliant!!

That was a very entertaining discussion Bruce. I hope you will do some more with professional academics. Interjecting your wit with their knowledge was brilliant.

Argyll is one of the most fascinating areas of Scotland, forget the East Coast, Fife & Edinburgh. Get yourself out West, it truly is the only place to visit in Scotland. Bruce’s story has several holes in it as usual!! Kilchurn Castle pronounced Kil-churn(milk churn), was occupied by many Clans over the years. In fact that area on Loch Awe is one of the most important strategical land areas in Scotland. Around that area & Islands of Loch Awe, there’s literally about 20-30 sites of Castles. Kilchurn Castle doesn’t stand near Glen Orchy, it’s further up the Road. That area at Loch Awe was the hub & the junction of loads of Glens, Drovers Routes & Trade Routes. You had Glen Stray(MacGregor country), Glenoe(MacIntyre country) Glen Kinglass(MacFarlane Country) Glen Loch.....etc etc. It was only latterly that the area was controlled by the Campbells, though big 18:13 hitters in Argyll, they had many advisories, no more so than the MacDougalls of Dunstaffnage & land around Oban, north of Loch Awe. Argyll was a Hanoverian stronghold, with many Clans supporting the British Crown, even today it’s notorious for its Britishness. The Union Jack flies high in Inveraray!! South of Oban there’s the small town of Easdale, which is a Norse name. The Vikings had a very big influence in the Argyll area. With remnants of Norse occupation in Kimartin, it was far from a Celtic people 18:13 in the area. Many Scots Kings were descended from Vikings. I digress, Easdale was the Largest town in the area, with huge Slate Quarries, when Oban was just a small Fishing Village. Anyway, thanks for reading. It’s now time for my very large Dram. Scottish British & Proud 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

Hiya, Bruce! I became interested in Scotland due to my neighbor/mentor (Jessie Burns of Dundee) who told me tales of her life and Scottish history. It turned this American born Roma girl into a Jacobite sympathizer who learned tartsns and listened to Kenneth Mckellar. I am so impressed by the coomplexity of the history you treat with such passion. I am hooked. Keep up the good work and congrats on an electric vehicle. She had me reciting Robert Burns that even to this day, when l slow down speech to enunciate, folk ask what country l am from. I still miss her.
