I particuarlly noticed the drum beat.

I wondered if it was the same beat that my ancestor marched to as the
Watch left the Highlands for the first time all those years ago.

No, I reckon they'd have bought a new drum since then.

Why buy a new one when the old one is perfectly serviceable.



Ah'll get ma coat...

That'll be a new coat I wager (10P maximum)?
