I was very sorry to see that the Edinburgh Central Mosque was vandalized with hate graffiti. To all the Islamic community I would like to apologize you are a valued part of our Scottish nation and it is disgusting that your place of worship was violated in this way.

Serve with traditional haggis, neeps (turnips) and tatties (potatoes). Heavily sherried whiskies like Glenfarclas pair beautifully with the rich flavors. Love peat? Reach for Lagavulin, Talisker, or Ardbeg.
Whether you're reciting "Address to a Haggis" or simply enjoying Scotland's finest, make it a night to remember. 🏴
Raise your glass and toast: Slàinte mhath! (Good health!)

A Tartan Souvenir Moment
A woman inspects a set of playable junior bagpipes that her husband bought in a nearby tourist store near Edinburgh Castle, Scotland.
She smiles, but I’m not sure if she’s happy. 😉
Did you know, the bagpipes, often considered Scotland’s national instrument, actually have ancient origins that trace back to the Middle East before finding their iconic home in the Highlands?

Very late getting to see this, but just booked us tickets to see the Tartan exhibition - in its final week! - at the V&A Dundee next week. We will be in the city centre that morning for my first shingles vaccine. https://www.vam.ac.uk/dundee/whatson/exhibitions/tartan #Tartan #Scotland #Dundee #Tayside #Costume #Fashion #Clothing #ScottishHistory #ScottishCulture #Museums

It is not possible to query #wikidata directly for the stations where people could stay in old railway stock repurposed as Camping Coaches, but I harvested the Scottish station names from the #wikipedia article and mapped them.
The query string is too long for a Short URL but here is a snapshot map. I was surprised how widespread these were. -
