Recent reads via eyes and ears. I am a bit of a skimmer with the eyes so one thing I ❤️ about audio is it makes me slow down 🎧 #reading #booksky #audiobooks

Hey @cerysmatthews.bsky.social , you mentioned curlews again on Sunday. This is a lovely curlew-mentioning song ('Leavin' Loch Leven') from Scottish musician Beth Malcolm's 2023 album 'Kissed and Cried' (bethmalcolm.bandcamp.com/album/kissed...). www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZHiK...

Scotland's Missing Forests 120k views in a week. Wonder if Scotgov gets the message. Barren-looking land, even overgrazed & burnt grouse moors, can support natural woodland & biodiversity. This is the story of two pals who went where politicians fear to tread www.youtube.com/watch?v=MuTV...

Very few folk turned out to protest about immigration in Dundee today but there were lots of us there to counter them just in case. We were a strong friendly crowd, singing and chanting all afternoon, reclaiming the saltire and welcoming refugees 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🎶 #dundee #scotlandwelcomesrefugees #saltire

Tree songs for @cerysmatthews.bsky.social How about 'Niel Gow's Apprentice' by the marvellous Michael Marra? Mentions 'the fiddle tree' in Dunkeld (Burns used Gow's tunes..). Others have released versions of Marra's song (incl. Fairport Convention). #MichaelMarra www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y0QM...

With so much negativity in the world it was many happy breaths of positivity to finally witness the Spell Songs project live on stage at the weekend. Beautiful music, lovely people, all the good tears. And "let the raven call you home" to fade... 🎶 🦊 #SpellSongs #Edinburgh #LiveMusic #LostWords

Stage at Usher Hall just before Spell Songs show. Banners with Jackie Morris artwork from Lost Words books.

Finished reading this today. One of those wow books - just reading it made me tired, can't imagine writing such a thing. First published in 2018, I don't know I missed it up till now, especially when, according to the quotes, everyone else in the world has read it already. #Books #Booksky

I wrote this poem in 2023 when a dear friend was given a terminal cancer diagnosis. She died in mid December 2024 and it would have been her 67th birthday today. I never shared the poem with her because she didn't need it - she already knew how to get the most out of her time: youtu.be/4odFgAuvnEU
