Do you think that's OK?
00:01
No, I don't. No.
00:02
I think it's such an important part of the Scottish tradition.
00:07
And no, I think that's not OK at all.
00:09
It needs to happen in the capital of the Highlands. Absolutely.
00:11
And yes, and make sure that this Scottish tradition is kept.
00:16
It will definitely reduce the amount of tourists
00:18
when they know that it's been cancelled. Absolutely. Yeah.
00:21
I think it's a bit sad because the Scottish culture
00:26
is is why we are here as a tourist.
00:31
And we love to see to see traditional dances,
00:37
traditional even to eat traditional meals and nursing.
00:42
If I went at the end of the year, I would prefer to go to this event
00:46
rather than have Christmas because Christmas is is international.
00:51
It's well known.
00:52
And this is more local and more traditional.
00:57
I mean, I'm not very knowledgeable about it, but if if I was around this area,
01:02
then I'd probably be upset if it was a tradition around here
01:06
and I'd probably be wanting to bring it back.
01:09
You probably won't get as many tourists with it being cancelled.
01:13
Obviously, people will come and see it.
01:15
And with it not being on, then you're going to reduce the amount of tourists.
01:19
So, yeah, if there are tourists who come to this place,
01:23
especially for that, then surely they will find it unpleasant
01:26
that they cut it off.
01:28
Brings in a lot of tourists and stuff like that.
01:30
So it's not very fair.
01:31
It's it's awful.
01:32
Part of the heart of Scotland, isn't it?
01:34
Along with Edinburgh and Glasgow and other big major cities.
01:38
And it's a big thing probably in Scotland as well, isn't it?
01:41
So, yeah, it's definitely will affect it.
