#ScotlandHour A2. My favourite part of Scottish history is the Wars of Scottish Independence (there's two of them), especially the First War (Wallace & the Bruce). I always remember my dad telling me stories of that period, when I was a kid @ScotlandHour

A2. Our favourite part of Scotland's history? The journey that Scotland's canals have taken through time. Amazing feats of engineering transformed from industrial waterways to beautiful green & blue spaces! 😍

@OdysseyScottish @KirstenAlana This is one of our stop-off points on the way south. Orlando, our over-energetic spaniel, loves the giant giant dogs. (Giant dogs are horses. Giant giant dogs are giant horses!)

replying to @markcalpin @markcalpin A2 I would love to explore the Isle of St Kilda. Read about it and also visited the museum on the Isle of Lewis a few years ago about the Island. That's what dreams are for ❤️🙏🏴 #ScotlandHour

A1: That's all thanks to our people we'd say! We've had many fascinating characters shape and create Scottish history over the centuries.
Just think of Sir Walter Scott here in the Borders, the many stories in stone @Rosslynchapel or at our abbeys #ScotlandHour
