Jester fun way to fill Easter days

COURT jesters Rona Fraser, five, and Essie Macleod, four, took part in some Easter school holiday fun at Edinburgh Castle.

The attraction put on a full programme of events for children of all ages while they were on their break

The line-up included jester performances, fire juggling and 16th-century fashion and make-up tips.

Executive manager Nick Finnigan said: “People worked off Easter egg calories by coming along and trying their hand at plate spinning.”
