By Bernie Bell
I thought I’d look through my picture folders for symbols of Scotland – getting ready for Independence!
You don’t have to be a Scot to want Scotland to have Independence.
A modest Unicorn at the entrance to a Glasgow hotel….
Highland Coo…The Western Isles….
Saltire bus stop …The Western Isles……
Saltire flagstone …Sheila Fleet’s Gallery & Cafe, Orkney……
A stone thistle atop Kirkwall Town Hall, Orkney…..
A dram…or two…or…..
A real, live, big Scottish thistle….
Scotland has got a lot to offer…….

I would add bluebells 🙂
You’re right – I can’t put a pic in the comments – so….
The Bluebells of Scotland
The Corries
Oh where, tell me where, has your Highland laddie gone?
Oh where, tell me where, has your Highland laddie gone?
He’s gone wi’ streaming banners where noble deeds are
Done
And it’s oh, in my heart I wish him safe at home
Oh where, tell me where, did your Highland laddie dwell?
Oh where, tell me where, did your Highland laddie dwell?
He dwelt in Bonnie Scotland, where blooms the sweet blue
Bell
And it’s oh, in my heart I lo’ed my laddie well
Oh what, tell me what, does your Highland laddie wear?
Oh what, tell me what, does your Highland laddie wear?
A bonnet with a lofty plume, and on his breast a plaid
And it’s oh, in my heart I lo’ed my Highland lad
Oh what, tell me what, if your Highland laddie is slain?
Oh what, tell me what, if your Highland laddie is slain?
Oh no, true love will be his guard and bring him safe
Again
For it’s oh, my heart would break if my Highland lad were
Slain
