Great pix! Interesting comments in the thread. The current Chief of Clan MacCallum Malcolm was a Captain in the A&G. His father George Ian Malcolm was a Lieutenant Colonel in the A&G and is given credit in founding the Tattoo at Edinburgh Castle.
On my last trip to Sterling I was lucky enough to get a B&B just out side the Castle and made numerous trip there. I have to dig out the photo albums
but it is so intresting,we just could'nt leave.
Our tour of the Highlands was great also, but the most fun was driving ourselves around. My then girlfriend's family lived in Northumberland and we
used the car. It was my first time driving British Isle style, round-a-bout etc,
and I had an absoute ball.
My grandfather was Sutherland. Thanks so much for sharing the photos. One of these days I plan to go the County Sutherland for a visit.
I would very much recommend Dunrobin Castle in Golspie. The back garden is beautiful and there is a falconry exhibit back there, too. There's also a family museum to the side.
