This video was from a Saturday in July (last week) at what was billed as “Garbage at Edinburgh Castle”. However the uniqueness of the city and it’s struggle against haar (it’s a sort of mist) rendered it invisible. Here’s a video - note the phone screen in front.

Missed a wee treat tonight @marcrileydj.bsky.social in Edinburgh with all your favourite folk. I mean a song about a sandwich filling - “Bubbles” session incoming surely?

This all appears to be a media construct - haven’t heard this reported at all - which deserves the full context (full article here: www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie...)

It was better than a second goal. Last time I was there didn’t end as planned - so glad to get that off my back. Check these though…his position before the ball was hit was dead-centre.

Hey @kathrynjoseph11.bsky.social lovely to meet you tonight; however writing up the setlist from (Lomond’s handwritten setlist) and can’t make out Song 3. Knowing the mouth on you, could it be called “ARSE.”? 😂
