I've been waiting to post that story since the 2nd of July and you go and beat me to it

It's great news for Scotland and the UK.

Must get the back room sorted out so I can run a B&B service

Is there any idea where the venue will be?

City centre (Holyrood) would make it a day away rail journey, further out could make it a long weekend.

I think they are thinking of using Holyrood Park. There is a fairly large flat area next to The Palace of Holyroodhouse but it faces East West.

The rest of the park is fairly hilly, but its not beyond the bounds of possibility that they could build a platform on a section of it.

Some of the private schools in Edinburgh have some very large playing field areas and though they have a view of that famous skyline they are not so scenic.

Or they could use the Promenade at Portobello

How about the Castle esplanade???? It would certainly make for a great background setting, having the castle so close!!!
