A bit of Slow TV for you, snapped on the bike today as I was trundling around Braemar. Gives a sense of the beautiful autumn colours in this part of the Cairngorms just now 🙂🍂👍
What it DOESN'T give you a sense of, however, is the panting and ultimately pushing up the Lion's Face path 🥵😆

A return to Braemar this morning. It was here, back in March, that I met pals for a walk and couldn’t do it - 2 days later I got the bad news 😢 Well today I climbed a wee hill and loved it 🐾😛🐾 Home before Amy hits 💨 💨 #BTPosse

Little Julia POV musing for #Wednesday100 about how much pretending she's had to do to keep herself and William alive, and how painful it would be to have to return to that and keep it up when escape is so close (obviously not all of that fit into 100 words, so here's more, the author lives, sorry!)

Frost in Braemar this morning but then a lovely few hours before high cloud moved in & wind increased, still a fine day for the hill though. Went up Beinn A Bhuird from Linn Of Quoich. Fine views of Ben Avon still bathed in sunlight from the Summit.

440 miles south of Braemar, on the south coast, it's been a day of strolling through historic ports, past saltmarsh and old oaks, and into....very much into.....fantastic pubs with distinctly Scottish decor 😉

Once again I'm in the minority, I think. I loved Braemar with all the machinations, bringing other history into the Fraser/MacKenzie story. I only hope we get the rising in S2 and see that assho!e Arch's fingers lopped off. (I can dream... at least we know Lovat gets executed, the old bastard) 1/3

So insidious. And it's gone further than I'd thought in Braemar than I'd thought. So manipulative. Take more than lowering the hectare threshold to stop or even rebalance this sort of takeover, I would think.

ACTUAL SCIENCE proves that Tim Curry gives the pre-eminent screen portrayal of Long John Silver

![One obvious obstacle to physical authenticity is Silver’s leg: cut “close by the hip” in the text, all the actors to play him are bipedal; therefore, they all had to fold and secure their left legs in what must presumably be a very uncomfortable position, making the role physically challenging (Stevenson [1883] 2012, p. 85). Such an arrangement must also make moving like Stevenson’s Silver very difficult. Fleming accounts for this by using an action double for Beery, most clearly in his murder of Tom, allowing the audience to believe in his physical prowess (Fleming 1934, 55:33–56:27). Newton maneuvers impressively on the crutch but does little to convince the viewer of any physical threat. This fact allows for film adaptations to further soften the Silver character as we will discuss in the next two sections: where Stevenson’s Silver appears to use his disfigurement to disguise his physical abilities, making him dangerous, film adaptations often use it to blunt any real threat. Charlton Heston, for example, is a menacing presence in the 1990 Turner Pictures adaptation, but his age and awkwardness of movement are a clear contrast with Wyeth’s dynamic, nimble Silver. With the possible exception of Tim Curry—who is younger and more agile than his cinematic counterparts—in the playful 1996 film Muppet Treasure Island, the Silver of the screen must rely more on his wits, his charm, and his presence of character, than on any physical threat he poses, in order to manipulate his crew, Jim, or Jim’s friends.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:vmd2oqboco524fhpqdu7pnbn/bafkreifqi7wzjpq6j3t4jave4sx2iawfmen3ldjmx7diu74wtpn7yhgoqy@jpeg)

A lingering result of my past as a local urban history dork is that I have a favourite house in Manor Park here in Ottawa.
It’s this one on Braemar.

Mussels in cider butter, and fries on the side 🇧🇪 🏴 at the Fife Arms, Braemar AB35. A posh hotel but reassuringly simple, elegant grub. They also serve a good non-alcoholic pint, very refreshing if you’re walking in the hills around. #redharesrestaurants
