setting fire the bears

I very very briefly worked in Stirling in around 1996ish, but commuted in by train and went straight to the place of work without seeing much else. I think we once trundled a bit around the back of the old bit of the town and found a sort of beer garden pub thing, but then had to catch the train back home again. Nicky and I popped here in 2005 and walked up to the castle but didn't go round it as far as photographs recall as it may have been getting refurbished or mended. Nicky popped here once with her sister's children when they were smaller but as we were in the area it was an ideal place to drag the kids round, though it will presumably merge into generic visited-castle memory in the distant future, unless "where we bumped into Steviefish from the allotment opposite ours" is enough to job their memories.
