We giggled remembering quirky wildflower #CommonNames from our Scotland childhood: pee-the-bed (dandelion), sticky willy (goose grass), itchycoos (dog rose) & stinking willy (ragwort). Goose grass seeds adore spaniels 😅. Confession: dandelion 📷️ from May at #Kinclaven Wood. #Wildflowerhour

On this day in 1057 Macbeth died. The real life King of Scots (r.1042-57) was defeated by his rival Malcolm at Dunsinane, but escaped and fought again at Lumphanan where he was mortally wounded. #OnThisDay #History #Scotland #Macbeth #Shakespeare
Despair is not just wrong. It's irrational. Things can change, at astonishing speed. In fact, the flip might be happening already. My article for the Guardian's climate support campaign. www.theguardian.com/membership/2...
Don’t despair about what’s happening to our planet. That’s what they want you to feel
There are social tipping points when the seemingly impossible suddenly becomes inevitable. Good journalism plays an essential role in helping drive these shifts and shows us how real change can happen

I love The Lady of Shallott:- Willows whiten, Aspens quiver, little breezes dusk and shiver... Gloriously evocative!!
