Queensferry

That's amazing.

I'm from South Queensferry.

So the thought of getting baptised in the forest.

like I can imagine that I got baptized in Hawaii

oh yeah and that was a very different

experience but I grew up in South Queensferry and I grew up in a world where atheism was cool and I didn't see a lot of people my age when I was growing up who knew the Lord so I do just think it's amazing what's going on right now

One of our young men is family, originally from Nigeria, but they've settled in Scotland.

And he's been amazing.

They were leaders in the Covenanter movement, Scottish Christians, who met in secret because they refused to recognize anyone else but Jesus Christ as the head of the church.

But on this night, in the inn known as the Palace in South Queensferry, all they wanted to be was two friends enjoying each other's company and a well-deserved rest.

After a short while, a nobleman sat down at their table.

The man asked Cargill and Hall to share a glass of wine with him, and being gentlemen, they did.

Voicing his frustration with a lack of information, Detective Chief Inspector Douglas Watson said, "For a guy who was so well known in the area, it was as if he had vanished off the face of the Earth.

We have ample sightings of him up to Saturday morning, but none after." Soon thereafter, someone came forward claiming that they had seen Robert speaking to a man outside the Queens Retreat pub in South Queensferry at 8:15 on the Saturday night.

Speaking about the development, DCI Watson remarked, "The sighting, if confirmed, is important because it switches the investigation away from Kirkliston.

Our appeal today is to anyone who saw Mr. Higgins from the early hours of Friday morning." 10 days into the inquiry, DCI Watson voiced his belief that the family had been let down by their community and Robert's acquaintances, who were reluctant to come forward with information.

Brenda thought that witnesses had not come forward because someone was pressuring them not to speak up.

Detectives admitted the investigation had stalled to a slow grind, but they were determined to track down Robert's killer.

After her son was laid to rest in South Queensferry, Agnes Higgins spoke to the Edinburgh Evening News.

She addressed the killer or killers directly, "You know the police will get you, and when they do, you will be sorry.

HER WELL.

QUEENSFERRY.

HER ALTAR IN ROME.

CONCLUSION.

Send him a message.

On the counterfactual, Duncan Gill pointed out from a Scottish perspective that if Edward had become king, then Scotland might not have had Holyrood, Queensferry, Dunfermline Abbey or a handy saintly flipside of the coin to the wronged Macbeth.

Because of Margaret of Scotland and Malcolm III and all that sort of stuff.

And he follows, you should absolutely do a series on the Scottish consults.

So, um, I am based up just outside Edinburgh.

Um, if you know Edinburgh, then it's just outside in a beautiful little coastal village called South Queensferry, where all the bridges, three bridges converge on an estuary, which is very good, which I...

Um, and my consultancy's been going for about a year and a half now.

Um, before that then, I was HR director at a Premier Ship football club up in Scotland, and before that was, um, down in, um, The Cotswolds working, um, at Bristol City as one of their HR VPs, so.

and abusing it almost 100% and it's a shame for the ones who actually need it yeah aye but let's let's go back to more positive things how do we make loads of money out of property you just keep going what's been your best deal so far then

best deal em I think for me not just on the numbers but for the experience I think I bought one in South Queensferry and it was like the

first

real absolute grunter like it was a repossession property did you get a grunter in South Queensferry don't I did you

right

what did you buy alright stab marks on the wall holes punched like it was shockingly bad but to see that turn around and see that actually like brought back to life I actually genuinely love to see that and that's what I've kind of focused on since like I guess the last year and a half is taking those properties that are really like derelict nobody wants them Does

Yeah, it just kind of goes back to like my dad being in the bank and he got like shares in the bank and then obviously the crash happened so he never diversified so that's always been my strategy for any business venture that I do.

that's

yes

uh many so you know this is just one example of many sort of plant effigies in british um occult lore um but many effigies are of mysterious antecedent, such as the Burry Man of Queen's Ferry near Edinburgh.

This peculiar figure appears annually on July 8th, the night before Ferry Fair, covered in thistle and teasel burrs, his head wreathed in flowers, a staff in each hand, he never speaks, but goes from house to house collecting tribute.

His equivalent in the agricultural east of England is the Straw Bear, a man clad in all straw who appears on Plough Monday, the Monday after Epiphany.
