Happy publication day to this wild, punkish, narcotic-fuelled trip of a novel!

Big Time is a riotous delight from start to finish with an ending that made me say, out loud, "that was DIABOLICAL" [complimentary]. I cannot WAIT for you lot to get your hands on it.

Tippi Hedren at home with her 400lb ‘pet’ Lion (Neil) - in 1971.

She later said she was “stupid beyond belief” letting a Lion have the run of the house.

Yup.

Last night’s training session at the Forth Bridge was one to remember! 🌉
I had a student with me, and together we spent ages perfecting this shot. Every tweak, every adjustment… totally worth it when we saw the final result. 📸✨

The switch from separate cable to electric tramways was a feature of Edinburgh public transport for 20-odd years. The inconvenience of the "Pilrig Muddle" between Edinburgh and Leith is well known, I like to call its lesser known companion between Edinburgh and Musselburgh the "Joppa Jumble" 🚋🚃
