St Andrews is now on my Bucket list of places to visit…. Thanks Roger….. Richard in Newcastle upon Tyne 😊
Another great video Rog, I used to go up to St Andrews a lot in the 80s for the Golf. I worked for St Andrews Ambulance at the time and we'd have to take the First Aid caravan up from Glasgow and set it up. Shame about the pish n chips 😂
Nice one Roger. St. Andrews has such a lot to offer and it is good you are highlighting this.
Thanks, Roger, for St. Andrews trip. Really nice town, pity no railway station, but Leuchars not to far away! Been a long time since I was there. Had a great day, weather wise, for your visit. Great to hear also, that Mrs E, is recovering well. 😃.
I use to go to St Andrew’s all the time at one time & it is a lovely town. My gran & grandad use to live in St Andrew’s in the 80s. Alot of fond memories as a child growing up in the 1970s & 80s.
Mate this is keeping me from editing today, AND giving me ideas! Cheers for showing the other side of St Andrews, fascinating place packed with history. Have a great weekend and all the best to Mrs E with her recovery 🙂
Nice video, thanks. What a lovely place St.Andrews is. Might put it on my bucket list. Such a shame there’s no train to St.Andrews. Looks like a train worthy town.
Great vlog, Rog! I remember seeing the station sign mentioning Leuchars for St Andrews when I was on the way up to Dundee!
Nice to see you're making the most of the HST's while they're still in Scotland!
St Andrews looks like a pretty place! I'll definitely check it out in the future!
You can tell I was blown away by St Andrews! Let me know in the comments what you like most about this beautiful city. Were you a St Andrews student? I’d love to hear your stories.

st andrews is the home the golf rog edwards tv
Been there many times, mostly by bus from Edinburgh but also by bus from Dundee. As a Paisley resident, this town is something special. It is also great to visit the home of golf, me being an ex-golfer (and future golfer)… handicap 21.3. As a tourist attraction and a place to visit, I would put St. Andrews in the top 5 of Scottish tourist attractions. Thanx for a great video that confirms my views. Btw William and Kate became an item in St. Andrews… the future king and queen of UK.
st andrews is amazing! i went to the golf course as well,how's mrs e's recovery now?
What I love about St Andrews the most, is it’s just such a nice place to walk around, loads of places for coffee and cake.. so much history scattered around all over the place.
Another great video Rodger. That's another day trip lined up when the weather gets better!
It's a gorgeous place to visit, especially on a nice day. I have no interest in golf, but it's clear that the money from that and from the university help make it a very desirable place to live and to visit. There are so many shops, restaurants and pubs for a place of its size, and the coastal scenery is amongst the best in the UK. Ah, will have to visit again!
Stunning architecture in St Andrews Roger, such a beautiful place even with its own harbour.
You must go back once Mrs E is better
MAGICAL CITY!!!! One of the top 3 cities I've ever been to! We ventured into the North Sea (it was July) and just had a glorious day! The company was pretty good that day, too!
My granddaughter is currently studying for her masters degree. We are from Columbus Ohio. I will be visiting there the 2nd of April for a week
