Just an update to say there won’t be a ‘Spiorad aird nam Murchan’ blog post at 8pm this evening.
Had a very busy, full on week away leading our Ardnamurchan Creative Retreat www.rkphotographic.com/ardnamurchan...
Have done lots of writing, notes and more towards the next and many other pieces…..

Thoughts on "A Fresh Start with Independence" and "Your Right To Decide" documents. A 🧵
