John @emptyjamjar.bsky.social · 01/10/2026The house Mackintosh designed in Helensburgh. Being renovated so can actually walk over the roof! Love Mackintosh design. 071

John @emptyjamjar.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Pitch to BBC: "I have an idea for a new TV soap. We've had Coronation Street but what about a new spin off...." 030
John @emptyjamjar.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Exactly! My grumble is pianos at train stations when anyone gets on and hammers away! You should have to prove you can play at grade 7 or something before they let you play. 100
John @emptyjamjar.bsky.social · 30/09/2026I assume so. Maybe for catching the rare land based lobster! 110
John @emptyjamjar.bsky.social · 30/09/2026I only spoke to staff cos son wouldn't let me go and speak to the bloke directly. Think he's already embarrassed that I asked for a room change at last hotel cos of humming from boiler beneath our room. 100
John @emptyjamjar.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Just had something similar over breakfast. Bloke playing badly out of tune piano in other room. Spoke to staff cos couldn't put up with it any longer. Nor could they i think. 100
John @emptyjamjar.bsky.social · 29/09/2026As you like your history, there's a lot to see! Im going to buy a book on Scottish history. 110
John @emptyjamjar.bsky.social · 29/09/2026What I'd not seen before was, apart from bits of grass lower down, there really was nothing on it. Just v dark stone. That's it. 110
John @emptyjamjar.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Glenfinan: the Harry Potter viaduct. And the monument to the Bonny Prince Charlie uprising, which started here, and got as far as Derby but then finished off at Culloden. 140
John @emptyjamjar.bsky.social · 29/09/2026The Right. Prattle on about minimum state interference in people's lives, and then operate on this level. 030
John @emptyjamjar.bsky.social · 29/09/2026To be fair, they probably look better in the sun but, it's worth going just to get close to a mountain that looks all black rock. 110
John @emptyjamjar.bsky.social · 29/09/2026When I packed for road trip to Scotland with son, I had to pack my stuff plus 50%. This is because he does what he always does: packs one pair of shorts and one pair of jeans (along with t shirts etc). 050
John @emptyjamjar.bsky.social · 28/09/2026I had to balance, it getting blown down the hill another metre vs me pinning it triumphantly to the ground and waiting for applause. 110
John @emptyjamjar.bsky.social · 28/09/2026On walk, Japanese woman lost her hat when wind blew it off. I was just about to stab it with my hiking pole when thought she might not be happy to have an air vent hole added to it. 140
John @emptyjamjar.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Had a dream Melania ran away with me. Still dreaming, I told others about what she had done in my dream. Waking, I was disturbed on so many levels. 240
John @emptyjamjar.bsky.social · 28/09/2026There are lots of villages on Skye called the same name. 040
John @emptyjamjar.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Tempted to ask for this just to see what it looked like: Toast on scrambled egg. 2100
John @emptyjamjar.bsky.social · 26/09/2026What I liked about them was their affable confidence. They'd happily chat, even if just briefly. One group in car were wary of the narrow road near Ben Nevis and their GPS. Told them they had nothing to worry about so long as braked before cliff edge. They were jokey. 120
John @emptyjamjar.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Excellent! I don't know if its normally like this or it's a seasonal time of year thing. Like birds migrating for the winter! 110
John @emptyjamjar.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Ohh. Where abouts? Talked briefly to different ones today when out walking. 110
John @emptyjamjar.bsky.social · 26/09/2026There seems to be more Americans in Scotland than Scottish people. 240
John @emptyjamjar.bsky.social · 25/09/2026I bet the local kids dare each other to go into the grounds and look through windows etc 110

They took software you bought once and turned it into a monthly subscription. Corporate America figured out the real money wasn’t in selling you something. It was making sure you NEVER actually own it. 1012335913
John @emptyjamjar.bsky.social · 19/09/2026Been invited to a party tonight. Invite says 'Dress to impress" This makes me nervous with my wardrobe. I'll just have to say I read it as 'Dress to depress.' 550
