dedicated to two fine examples of the human race, both scottish.

yesterday i was saddened to hear the news of the passing of “Big George” Watt http://www.eveningtimes.co.uk/news/shock-as-scots-blues-star-big-george-is-found-dead-120329n.20697540 i saw george perform many times over the years, a wonderful performer who never failed to move me.

i had only just heard about big george, when moments later, the news came through about Iain Banks http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-22021298 i have read everything iain has written since i picked up the wasp factory, what seems like a lifetime ago. to say he is my favourite author is an understatement, both men make me proud to be both scottish and human.
