It has been a dreich winter, and seeing blue skies & fluffy clouds this week has been a treat but now my phone is full of cloud photos because they were just too splendid not to snap. Case in point

'Gallus Glasgow'
Wonderful old map of Glasgow from the 1860s with interactive data layers on old and new buildings.
Love to see how the city developed over the last 150 years.
Greenlaw Town Hall, in the heart of Greenlaw in the Scottish Borders. Built between 1829 and 1831, it has been beautifully restored after years of dereliction. More pics and info: https://www.undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/greenlaw/greenlaw/index.html
'COASTAL WATERS'

@MadeyeTheCarnaptious Never… it’s being used as a tool to keep the #SNP and #independence for #Scotland off the radar. The fight must regain its energy and continue. I don’t believe they have any evidence, and it’s surely cost much more in police and legal time than any ‘findings’ they ever make.
Airborne pollution settled on a window frame, #London.
Even with the benefit of Ultra-Low Emission Zones, the air still carries a significant load of... what? It certainly doesn't look very appealing.
It just makes me even more grateful that I have the good fortune to live on the west coast of #Scotland.

Another #throwback to another plushie I made two years ago with this little Nessie!
I’m really proud of this design with its nice mossy green, simple embroidery and red highlights. It was adopted instantly!
I've been away on a pretty successful research trip this week: functional public transport, very much walking, my camera lost and found [again]. This was the glorious, lumpy ridgeline to Beinn Narnain from A' Chrois, after a long ascent.
Ri Cruin Cairn, all that remains of a structure built some 4,000 years ago as the burial for a single individual and one of the large number of ancient monuments in Kilmartin Glen, north of Lochgilphead in Argyll.

A magical moment from today’s Western Isles Workshop—captured under the fleeting beauty of a rainbow in Garrabost, Isle of Lewis. Keep an eye out for our next adventure!

Important new report published today from the University of St Andrews: "The University of St Andrews and the Legacies of Empire, 1700-1900" - looks like a really thorough and well researched piece of vital work. Thanks to the researchers. https://zenodo.org/records/14975043 #slavery #slaveTrade #blackHistory #History #ScottishHistory #colonialism #StAndrewsUniversity #StAndrews #Fife #Scotland
Another photo from my trip out of Glasgow last weekend, this time from the slopes of Ben Lawers. Scottish mountains in the spring sunshine are really up there with almost anywhere in the world, and you can reach the closest of them within an hour's drive from the city.
