The wee gallus bloke wi' his bunnet tae the side in my profile pic is my great-uncle Bill Docherty, circa 1938. A bit of a dandy, he was probably dressed for tattie howkin here.

The Oxenham Arms pub in South Zeal, Devon, boasts the unusual distinction of having been constructed by 12th Century monks around a prehistoric standing stone.

If you’re lucky and visit at the right time of day, as I did today, you might also see it being recharged with sacred energy by the sun.

As someone who grew up in Blackburn, West Lothian, I'm depressed, embarrassed, and pure ragin at Reform's election win. The place had little going for it before (apart from Susan Boyle) - now it has even less. ☹️
