From a basement in Ayrshire comes the 1st in a series of blogs/vlogs for my @news_RSE and University of Glasgow project on #MaryQueenofScots in popular culture: mqs.glasgow.ac.uk/index.php/2020… (please don't laugh at my homemade video). We're posting twice a week in a #monthofmaryqueenofscots.

What if #MaryQueenofScots was the subject of a Reich propaganda film? Wait, she was? Her beheading was also the 1st ever Scottish historical film in 1895. You can watch both in full in our latest University of Glasgow and @news_RSE project blog by Dr Mickey Mayhew: mqs.glasgow.ac.uk/?p=260

I know it's a bit of a silly thing to celebrate given the current global climate but I've been completely self-funded since I started my undergrad in 2012 and for the first time in my life, I have funding, even if it's just for a few months! 🎉

My dad recently uncovered the original plans for the neighbourhood I grew up in (in America). Cromwell Court was the original name of the street I lived but they changed it at some point... to Stuart Court.

Hilariously surprised this morning at the National Records of Scotland to see my husband promoting their “Prisoners or Patients” exhibit. (Black and white is the not criminally insane husband…)
