Finally on the last leg of my long drive to/from the amazingly charming #Veere in the Netherlands, delivering the Scottish Diaspora Tapestry.

Really enjoyed marking the anniversary of the 1st Battle of Dunbar (1296) with a talk in Spott church today. Great turnout for a sunny Saturday too!

My daughter (10) has spent the last two weeks researching and writing a walking tour of our town, just for her own enjoyment. She's advertised it with posters around the house. Today she's delivering it for the whole family and I'm so very very chuffed !

I met Alex Salmond once, when he turned up unexpectedly at an event in Brittany - just as I was about to begin my speech, in (fairly wonky) French, to open an exhibition. Afterwards he told me he knew every word to "Hey Johnnie Cope" by heart! Sorry to hear of his passing.

Great evening at the first ever Pride of Prestonpans Awards Night, brilliantly run by Prestonpans Community Council . Very pleased to be nominated for turning the Town Hall into a home for Prestonpans 1745 . So many worthy folk, both on stage and in the audience. Well done to all the winners!

It was a real pleasure to speak to a packed house at the Battle of Falkirk Muir conference yesterday, in the company of so many great speakers.

Over two busy days of talks, cameo re-enactments, commemoration, music and wargaming, it has been an honour to lead the 280th anniversary programme at Prestonpans this weekend. Now for a dram to remember all those in whose footsteps we walked.
