A monument in the old graveyard by Stirling Castle to Margaret Wilson, executed aged 18 by drowning in the Solway Firth, along with her sister, for refusing to renounce her Protestant faith. Religion: don't you just love it? Wouldn't Jesus have been proud! 6th May, 2003.
A westward view from Stirling Castle towards the upper Forth Valley and The Trossachs on 6th May, 2003.

The statue of Robert Burns in Stirling on 6th May, 2003. They have statues of everyone in Stirling!
