Scotland needs to be independent to escape the course the UK is on. I walk. I cook. I sometimes write and draw. I play instruments and love music. I love fitba. Wee bit on the autism spectrum.

I've been walking the entire north-south length of Scotland and raising some cash for cancer research as I go. Always happy for both donations or company as I wander. Next big leg will be the John O'Groats trail

Just a wee rewind... they charged a serious crime... left it one day beyond the proper day then progessed a bogus charge... got thrown out because they knew it couldn't stand.... reported it as a technicality rather than an abuse of process ... but we are the chumps because it was 'a technicality '

Maybe it was an accident that they waited a day extra to push it forward despite knowing it would be thr extra day that made it illegal. But hey, ignorance and all that...

Technicality? Ignorance of the law in pursuit of political prosecution, no?

I dont remember a time I've ever been in as much despair at the state of the Western world but particularly USA and GB. It's thr champion of nothing its supposed to be and protecting nothing of its supposed values. Changing of the guard needed

Any away win is a good one, but I think particularly at this time. We've a small squad and injuries and main thing is to not get too deep in trouble. Think we will pick up a bit between now and January then probably struggle again as winter takes a toll on the squad. Unless can get some more in

That's tough man. My wife and my sister both have that and it's awful to live with when it flares up. All the best for a quick recovery

Thanks to everyone that sent some money through towards cancer research. Didn't wear the kilt the whole way this time (too many barbed wire fences to get over) but there's plenty of Scottishness on show

TJ - Scottish football addict @tjscarves.bsky.social · Aug 17

You'd get a warm welcome. Got loads more photos of that stretch but here's some wildlife I came across on the way, as well as lots of bob tail rabbits and arctic terns
