Thankyou for your beautifully written work!! Try to ignore the negative comments, as they are completely unfounded in my own opinion! I struggle to understand their stance and need to bemoan such obvious hard work, that this clearly took to complete! Thankyou once again!!
This is a brilliant book, about a fascinating, largely unknown, unexplored subject, tonnes of stuff to be learned... but I cant help thinking its named wrongly. Luckily I came here by accident, and got much better than I expected, but I think it would receive far more sought for attention if it was called 'tales of the borders' or something! But thank you so much just the same for reading and uploading
It is too bad they don't have these stories in a nice smooth deep male voice for those of us that prefer audiobooks in male voices - preferably with an English accent. Maybe I just got too spoiled by being able to set my audiobooks to the voice I like so that now a female voice just isn't soothing for me.
An english voice for Scottish history?? Would Ewan McGregor not be more suitable 😉 Well spoken yet still has that hint of his Scottish accent. He could even use the trainspotting "it's shite being Scottish" accent. I'd agree with the sentiment and I'm Scottish, we're ruled by wankers 😁
@@justintime1307 you're totally right. And of course I agree with you. I live in Edinburgh as a Hungarian, but i love Scottish fairy tales, legends, ghost stories, etc. Cheers from Edinburgh, Alba gu bráth!
Scotland run from well below Berwick to Carlisle for centuries before the English land grab. I do believe people in Newcastle still see themselves as Scottish as well, friends certainly do. How far down is Hadrians wall again?????

I'm from Scottish heritage, thought I would enjoy my ancient ancestors stories. Yes I can visualize it easily.
Thankyou for your beautifully written work!! Try to ignore the negative comments, as they are completely unfounded in my own opinion! I struggle to understand their stance and need to bemoan such obvious hard work, that this clearly took to complete! Thankyou once again!!
A surprisingly good reader with a pleasant voice & accent, thank you 🙏🏼🌹
Thank you for the lovely recording of a fascinating subject.
Thank you very much for the upload! The reader is actually very good, love her voice and accent!
I enjoyed this very much, loved the readers voice.
me too. I have some awesome videos too!
24% Scottish! Interested in learning more about heritage.

Ragnar was made infamously famous by a violent and should be censored Netflix series.
Wish it was captioned for the hearing impaired. #smh

Why on earth is she talking about Northumbria...it is not in Scotland.., its supposed to be about Scottish myths..
No one cares, we're here for the stories not a geography lesson.
Why would the narrator be English??? Ridiculous
Scottish legends??
The majority of this prattles on about england!!!!
Wasted time I won't get back
Sl
The greatest modern myth is that Scotland would survive economically in a separation from England.
Groan at the accent. I cannot listen.
So go to a library and read the book instead of hear it read.
Lol this fool isnt library compatible. Its evident
I mean I sort of get it. You expect a true Scottish accent for this theme
Narrator is a blatantly biased Lancastrian.
Slight technical hitch - Northumbria is in England. Scottish Legends not!
Again no one really cares.
Scotland run from
well below Berwick to Carlisle for centuries before the English land grab.
I do believe people in Newcastle still see themselves as Scottish as well, friends certainly do.
How far down is Hadrians wall again?????
Borderers border, my man. We don't discriminate haha
