    Edinburgh Millitary Tattoo

    Just been watching highlights from the Edinburgh Millitary Tattoo on BBC TV,great stuff! Started with massed (that is 200) pipes&drums,included recreation of Tam O'shanter storey,Amazing Grace (led by female singer in Black watch dress!) and Aul Lansine (spelling!). Made me proud to be British and of Scots descent.

    Just saw it myself - Wasn't it windy! Just loved the flaming drumsticks. I must see it live in the very near future.
