Drum Castle

I went to see Fraser's Dragoones at Drum Castle. Fine day, nice bunch. Good to be asked for feedback, especially from a hodden grey, blue bunnetted person armed to the teeth.

FJ came along later, and then I remembered how much I'd forgotten. Was a snaphance a musket lock where the priming pan opened as the match came down? Which was the frizzen? What was the primary differences between the Scots government troops and the Royalist rebels?

There was a good skirmish display, and I couldn't resist putting them in sequence.
