      I have similar memories with the big chest style record player that was in the corner. Dad would come home from work and say "I could hear that music at the bottom of the street. . ."
      Did you get a chance to see him in concert? I saw him on his last tour here in Australia and he sounded as good as (if not better than) the records or any other recordings.

      Me too and always loved him. Wrote to him in my twenties and asked home where he might be performing,he said he’d be in Blackpool on a certain dates. I arranged to go there from west wales. I wanted to have his autograph,and asked the security if I could I could see him, he went to ask ,he came back and asked if I wasMrs Rees,you can imagine I proud I was he remembered my letter ,I was asked me to come to his dressing room.,had a chat and autograph. Was I a happy bunny.😊

      @@LiftedBuddha You do realise this was Edward II, who was a wet week-end as far as battles went? Bannockburn was a crap defeat - but in the annals of the Scottish English haggle, just one battle. Had we been able to send James VI back we probably would. Mind you we cut off Charles Stuart's head, and chucked out his son.
      Bloody good song, though!

    Ah, it makes me feel like walking those green hills of Scotland. I visited once many years ago, and I've always held that land and its people in my heart. There are parts of Marin County (just north of San Francisco) that remind me of Scotland. By no coincidence, the town in that area is called Inverness!

    Love Scotland, de moltes parts del món. Diu la cançó o la llegenda que uns danesos van voler asaltar Scotland per la nit i en la foscor van topar amb les punxes del Card. Això va alertar el poble, es van poder defensar i véncer. Per això la Flor d'Scotland és el card, la planta més senzilla i la més potent. Love Scotland desde Catalunya. Quin pais té un himne a una flor? Love Scotland per sempre

    O Flower of Scotland,
    When will we see
    Your like again,
    That fought and died for,
    Your wee bit Hill and Glen,
    And stood against him,
    Proud Edward's Army,
    And sent him homeward,
    To think again.
    The Hills are bare now,
    And Autumn leaves
    lie thick and still,
    O'er land that is lost now,
    Which those so dearly held,
    That stood against him,
    Proud Edward's Army,
    And sent him homeward,
    To think again.
    Those days are past now,
    And in the past
    they must remain,
    But we can still rise now,
    And be the nation again,
    That stood against him,
    Proud Edward's Army,
    And sent him homeward,
    To think again.
    The Hills is bare nou,
    An Autumn leafs,
    Lies thick an still,
    Ower land that is tint nou,
    That thae sae darlie held,
    That stuid agin him,
    Prood Edward's Airmie,
    An sent him hamewart,
    Tae think again.
    O Flower of Scotland,
    When will we see
    your like again,

    And sent him homeward,

    The best rendition of this is from the Scottish rugby international that first DARED to allow Scots to think that they might have a mind of their own. Atmospheric in the extreme - watch the eyes of the players, tentative they might have been in this first rendition but the crowd was rollicking and alive !
