It was an incredible adventure. we took a bus all the way from London. We did our best to speak Afrikaans or at least sound Afrikaans. There's definitely still much palpable hostility toward anyone "British sounding," which I honestly appreciate. I actually thought Charles was going to set Scotland and Ireland free once he became king.

I used to work in London and it isn't that far really from Edinburgh, mind you the train is quicker than the bus.
Ireland is a country in its own right and is part of the EU while we the UK aren't. The monarch has no powers to do anything like that anymore.
We have an extremely complicated history, me being a protestant from Northern Ireland that had to leave as a child due to The Troubles I most definitely am British.
