I don't often complain BUT we are now into light nights and the excuse given by the National Records of Scotland's "management" to close the NRS at 4pm Mon to Fri doesn't wash any more! @ScotlandsPeople and @NationalRecordsofScotland are management going to change back the hours at all?????

I'm on the hunt for a portrait of Peter Burn Swinton who had been the factor of the Yester Estate in Gifford from 1856 to 1911. The artist was Geirge Fiddes Watt a Scottish portrait painter. I'm contacting the National Portrait Gallery. Welcome any suggestions.

@bendorgrosvenor.bsky.social @acspring.bsky.social suggested I chat to you about finding a portrait of Peter Burn Swinton painted in 1906/7 by George Fiddes Watt. Can you help?
