I’ve had visitors this weekend and I tried to take them to the Castle yesterday, only to find it was SOLD OUT for the day.
Sold out?
“Yeah,” said the guy. “Numbers were getting crazy so we cap it at 8500 a day now.”
But in February?
“Yeah,” said the guy “January is now the only downtime. As soon as the rugby starts, the whole circus starts again.”
So there you go folks: You can’t even get in the Castle these days unless you book.
Historic Scotland are doing all right. 8500 tickets a day x £21.50 (online adult price) = £182,750 per day x 7 days = more than a million pounds a week.
Gotta get me one of them castles.
Anyway – you can afford a trip to the Castle if you win the quiz tonight:
