I visited Port Soy on the Moray Coast last week. It's a lovely town with a 17th century harbour. Many of the stones in the harbour walls have been laid vertically, not in the usual horizontal pattern. The thinking behind this was that the walls would be less likely to be washed away in fierce seas. It did it's job until New Year's day of this year when storm winds and heavy seas partially breached the wall. Repair work is underway.

The stone pattern makes the harbour very distinctive so you might recognise it as it's been used for filming Peaky Blinders and portrayed the island of Todday in the 2016 remake of the film Wh**ky Galore where the harbour walls made a great hiding place for contraband Wh**ky 'rescued' by the islanders from the wreck of the SS Politician.

I visited the Church of the Holy Rude (Holy Cross) in Stirling today. The church dates to the 15th century although an earlier church stood on the site from 12th century. Mary Queen of Scots worshiped, John Knox preached here and Mary's baby son was crowned here in 1597 becoming James 6th of Scotland. Steeped in history and very beautiful. The sun shining through the stained glass windows was just wonderful

Tonight all over Scotland and many other countries of the world people will come together to celebrate Robert Burns, Scotland's National Bard. People gather at Burns Suppers to remember the poet, share stories, songs and good company. The traditional main course on the menu at a Burns Supper is haggis, bashed neeps (mashed turnip) and tatties (mashed potatoes). There's also a wee dram of wh**ky or two, or three.... to drink a toast to the Immortal Memory of Robert Burns. Some of my favourite Burns words come from his poem ' A Man's A Man For a' That'

For a' that an a' that,
It’s comin yet for a’ that,
That Man to Man the warld o’er
Shall brithers be for a’ that.

The photographs are a wee selection of Burns Suppers celebrated with family over the past few years. Happy Burns Night! **ky
