Cowane's Hospital in Stirling. Sadly not open today (nothing seems open in Stirling today). I seem to recall a tale that once every so often, the statue of John Cowane climbs down from his plinth and does a little jig

My cruise ship adventure is coming to an end. Big swell this morning meant gripping the lectern every time we hit a wave. Hosted a private dinner and sadly four people couldn't come because they were seasick but the rest of us had a wonderful time and I met a lovely papyrologist

Nothing like getting out of the office to go see archaeologists excavating interesting sites. Found a quiet spot with a great view for lunch
