I'm not usually one for the most touristy of attractions but I do recommend @MaryKingsClose when in Edinburgh. Really helps you understand the city's "alleys" which are so different from others and it's well done. #ScotlandHour https://t.co/gyxRFs78WE

A1 I'd say history, myths, and legends do pretty well on islands where the population evacuated nearly a century ago. And all you have are ruins, seabirds, and some iron age sheep. @StKildaNTS #scotlandhour

Q2: I love to stand & admire structures built across the country in the most difficult places — that someone 800 years ago took a look at that intimidating geological feature & thought ‘aye, that’ll do nicely.’

A1. It's because Scotland's old. Like really old. The best kind of old. The landscape (which is also really old) has loads of old stuff. Big bag of old stuff with the boys. Old.
