Wish I'd been able to read them in a more timely fashion as I followed avidly the news about the referendum. Your information as well as the comments from your readers were both instructive and interesting. (We've been traveling as you know and I am behind on blog reading.) <br /><br />Certainly agree that many other countries should take a lesson from the civilized way this issue was handled.<br /><br />And on a lighter note ... those pipers look quite wonderful in those kilts!!!Sallie (FullTime-Life)https://www.blogger.com/profile/15442598857394838271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8811197833423548455.post-46913653515077466212014-09-27T10:18:43.255+02:002014-09-27T10:18:43.255+02:00Very interesting.

I've seen clips of all the immediate Royal family Ladies sporting this at the Balls they regularly stage at Balmoral....You may have guessed that you've touched on a favourite subject of mine, many thanks I really enjoyed it,<br />Best wishes,<br />Di..xx<br />Trubeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15297883125832619352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8811197833423548455.post-44531790415305123612014-09-24T07:51:49.919+02:002014-09-24T07:51:49.919+02:00Really interesting to have known about the customa...Really interesting to have known about the customary attires..thanks for sharing!K V V S MURTHYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00662875818831639253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8811197833423548455.post-91678260519736515742014-09-24T04:11:32.880+02:002014-09-24T04:11:32.880+02:00I love that beautiful stonework in your header of ...I love that beautiful stonework in your header of Edinburgh.
