What a great guy! What a great garden! Pleasure to meet Rob Hardy who was buzzing after just hearing he won 🥇 at Chelsea Flower Show with his @trusselluk garden. The fight against hunger and food poverty has found a great new ambassador. And thanks @projgivingback for funding it

Annual trip to Charles Kennedy’s grave in Clunes. Seven years since his death and oh my has politics changed for the worse since then … playing the lament that was played there at his funeral. Lovely tune. The cold playing slight havoc with one or two notes!

Concluding a short break in the Highlands with our usual trip to Charles Kennedy’s grave to play the Gaelic lament to which he was buried. On a bitterly cold but sunny day like today there is surely no more beautiful burial ground. Now heading south for the big game … #utc

Always try to pop into the National Piping Centre when in Glasgow. Vid 1 my teacher Finlay’s 👍 for my piping today. Vid 🏴 soft power in action. Members of the Omani Army pipe band show what 2 weeks learning at the NPC can get you. Terrific performance

Busy day in the recording studio, Finlay MacDonald and I backing new songs by brilliant Cumbrian band Hardwicke Circus , one “The North Awakes,” and one for Ukraine. The band is the only 🇬🇧 band to have toured Ukraine (twice) since full scale invasion. More to come when album made!
