Excellent Robertson. I've been waiting for these. One of these days I'm going to time a trip over right so that we can attend this as well.
Darn it...Wickermon, Guid Nychburris, Edinburgh Tattoo, Fringe Festival and on and on and on......so many festivals so few frequent flyer miles.
Will be waiting for the next set of pics.
