Breaking news: Jimmy Carter, a no-frills and steel-willed Southern governor who was elected president in 1976, died Sunday at his home in Plains, Georgia, according to his son. He was 100 and the oldest living U.S. president of all time.
Jimmy Carter, 39th president and Nobel Peace Prize winner, dies at 100, his son says
The tenacious Southerner was turned out of office after one term. But he had a brilliant post-presidential career as a champion of health, peace and democracy.

Three weeks of mirk and murk in the Greater Zetlandics, quite fast moving today. Front garden, 9.15am after a very breezy night. Worse looming at weekend. You either love this weather or emigrate to Wick. #Shetland.

Had a magical time at the
launch gig in Glasgow seeing old pals and people I hadn’t seen for 40 years. Peter Capaldi and his band were, rocky, mature and magnificent. And Robbie wore his shades.
