Saint Andrew's Day Rally

Last Night saw a very successful March through the streets of Edinburgh hundreds of people showed up with the Flag of Sain Andrew (the saltire) waving and draped over there shoulders .

The March started at 16:30 from the esplanade of Edinburgh Castle the marchers came from all over Scotland and where made up from a variety of Different groups from The Tartan Army To Jacobite Groups and the ordinary people of Scotland there to help celebrate Saint Andrews Day All be it a day Early

As the Pipe band tuned up a large crowd of tourists flocked round them taking photographs of them and the marchers then it was time to go and as the marchers headed of down the royal mile they where joined by the tourists and the people of Edinburgh who joined the march or leaned out of there windows to watch as it went by some even putting saltire's out there windows in support of the marchers it was a joy to see and made you proud to be Scottish and proud of the people of our country
