    My Dear Nicholas - You give inspiration to decorate and I love your sense of style. Your gift of design and appreciation for keeping the things of Historical value, giving them a new life in the 21st century. I am Canadian with parents of first generation from Scotland who came to Canada in 1918. Did I just give away my age? You bring back so many lovely ideas to incorporate the old with the new.

    I'm in awe you're allowed to take pets inside those stores. She was so well behaved also. Try a harness on her instead of the collar. Less stress on her neck. I love that teapot. The stores had some pretty items for sale. You have to be enjoying your new kitchen. Lots of storage space. Have a great weekend.

      One day I had my little dog with me but not his harness. I did have a collar in the car. He was okay with me putting the collar on him and clipping his leash on but when I sat him down to walk and he felt the slight pull on his neck, lol, he went berserk. That little boy was biting at the leash, twisting his body around in ways I didn't know he could, and I hadn't even taken a step yet. I was completely shocked just how much he hated it. I never made that mistake again. I keep a harness in my car now. Lol. He taught me a valuable lesson.

    You are an inspiration. Living well on less is an obsession of mine. I am an artist with little money, yet I live beautifully on what I have by employing creativity. It is possible to drink good wine, live in a lovely home, and enjoy the finer things of life simply by making good choices. Great wealth is not required for elegant living, and many rich people do not appreciate what is being handed to them daily by their servants. Most anyone with taste can live well, and your channel is a valuable resource for this enterprise. Thank you.

My grandmother's parents immigrated to the US from Edinburgh and I felt a kinship with them as you strolled through what I imagine the city looked like when they walked those streets!

These are not good for the earth or people. Thank you for the shopping day. The almond tea cake looks amazing.

    Delightful, Nicolas! Enjoyed this so much, thank you! You're a real inspiration and I'm re-decorating my home which is already close to your style, but am tweeking it even more than I've had it! Today I had my Twinings of London Earl Gray tea in my beautiful china tea cup and saucer from the Royal Garden collection from the UK called Wildflowers, it's a green leaves, blackberries and clover printed cup and saucer my oldest daughter in New Hampshire gave me for my birthday last year! Greetings from old Yankee New England where those of us of British/Scottish/Irish and French descent are still close to the UK in spirit! Think if I reincarnate I want to land in beautiful charming, romantic Edinburgh! My Scottish forebears, the McGaffeys came from Aberdeen and landed in Portsmouth, NH in 1721, many fought in the Revolutionary War! The shops in Edinburgh look magnificent! Thanks again for sharing! Cheers~

    This was so beautiful and relaxing as always. I’m shocked you are allowed to take your cutie patootie everywhere with you that’s amazing. And no one is wearing masks. The shops remind me of Turin Italy and when you get to those charming cobble stone streets, they are the kinds of places that would make me want to paint again. Iv been on a hiatus. I could watch hours of these tours. Its what most of us I could say are not surrounded by, and seeing such beautiful places is inspiring. When I saw those dark curtains in the wallpaper room at was it Jeffries? I thought they would be perfect for me! its 6 years I was looking for curtains and nothing caught my eye til now. That orange couch was amazing. If they had it in a royal purple with teal peacock cushions.... oh boy. That was a lovely cake loaf and I can only dream of the almond tea in it. I am obsessed with almond scent. Sicilian almonds are by the the best I have ever tried in my life along with pistachios. They make everything with them. The best house cleaner I have ever used is almond scented as well and Italian. If they made a perfume from it I would be all over it. There is nothing in North America like it.
    I want to try this recipe!

      He must have been allowed to remove his mask indoors for filming, but all the other shoppers had theirs on ! It's not necessary to wear them outdoors, and in cafes you don't need to wear them sat at a table.

      Blonde Enigma I wasn’t paying attention too much to ppl in his video. Here if outdoors there are groups or crowds of ppl you need your mask, but not for walks or secluded strolling, and ppl have been thrown out of shops for not wearing a mask. It depends where you live I guess.
