          Glamis Castle is the setting of shakespeares Macbeth. It’s also historically a royal home so the queen mother used to stay there as a child. It’s also got multiple ghost stories associated with it and it’s still open to the public the way it was hundred of years ago with tours being available to u can relive its history

        I’m pretty sure it’s spelled “whisky” in the UK, especially in Scotland

    What’s your favorite historical way of getting rid off government?

    As a Czech I am inclined to windows but you may like different ways.
