This is my obituary of Peter May in today’s “The Herald” newspaper. Peter’s wife has described it as a “lovely tribute”, so I’m very glad about that. But it really was such a shock to many of us!

If you think closing an RNLI station is done by people with "legitimate concerns" you really need to give your head a wobble. It's an unforgivable act of thuggery.

Misleading headline. Jenkins is actually supporting the idea of Scottish independence, following Ireland's success. Very interesting from a 'British loyalist'. Slowly then all at once: this emboldened Celtic alliance could spell the end of the UK | Simon Jenkins www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Slowly then all at once: this emboldened Celtic alliance could spell the end of the UK | Simon Jenkins

It’s something akin to a quiet earthquake: home nations jointly declaring their wish to be freed from English domination. A big move needs a big response, says Guardian columnist Simon Jenkins

Theres a Tory MP on BBC Politics live talking about the SNP with no SNP representation. The BBC presenter who corrected a guest who mentioned the Reform Party that 'But there is no-one from Reform to reply', said nothing & let the Tory continue her attack on the SNP. Two Tier BBC!

Just discussing this. We're left in no doubt where his sympathies lie. He never came out with a similar defence over climate change protests or those protesting against Israel's wholesale slaughter in Gaza.

Nick Robinson on Today is literally talking about ‘legitimate concerns’ after second night of organised men dressed in black - sorry ‘protesters’ - mobilising en masse in another littoral town. This is how street fascism is normalised

That’s a shocking result for Aberdeen. Maybe it’s time for Dave Cormack to step away. And Burrows to head back to the central belt. (Which he never left) What about a fan buy-out?

Everywhere she dies. Everywhere I go she dies. No sunrise, no city square, no lurking beautiful mountain but has her death in it… —Norman MacCaig, “Memorial” from THE POEMS OF NORMAN MacCAIG (Birlinn, 2009) Today, 30 August, is #GriefAwarenessDay #poem #poetry birlinn.co.uk/product/the-...

Memorial
by Norman MacCaig

Everywhere she dies. Everywhere I go she dies.
No sunrise, no city square, no lurking beautiful mountain
but has her death in it.
The silence of her dying sounds through
the carousel of language, it's a web
on which laughter stitches itself. How can my hand
clasp another's when between them
is that thick death, that intolerable distance?

She grieves for my grief. Dying, she tells me
that bird dives from the sun, that fish
leaps into it. No crocus is carved more gently
than the way her dying
shapes my mind. – But I hear, too,
the other words,
black words that make the sound
of soundlessness, that name the nowhere
she is continuously going into.

Ever since she died
she can't stop dying. She makes me
her elegy. I am a walking masterpiece,
a true fiction
of the ugliness of death.
I am her sad music.

Happy birthday for tomorrow to Mary Shelley who was born on the 30th August 1797. 🎂 Did you know that in her most famous novel, she wrote that Dr Frankenstein travelled to #Orkney to create a mate for his monster? So that was nice. She must have thought it was lovely here.
