King of Scotland

Took a drive to Stirling Castle today, since I've either never been there, or I was at the age of non-rememberance when I was there last.

Wasn't overly impressed with the interior but it's pretty spectacular from the outside, and from the M9. My favourite part, unsurprisingly, is the ties it has to Robert the Bruce, William Wallace and the battles of Stirling Bridge and Bannockburn. It's a pretty awesome part of Scottish history.

He's Robert T Bruce surveying his lands. (not too sure how much he'd like the nasty modern housing that has sprung up between him and the Wallace Monument though!)
