Finally getting my stuff together on various platforms and getting out of my comfort zone in terms of content.

Audit Scotland released report on East Lothian Council today and here’s my response as Leader of the Opposition.

One of Edinburgh's less well-known #HilltopMonuments - views of it being obscured by the mature trees surrounding it - this is Clermiston Tower on Corstorphine Hill in the west of the city.

This might just have to do for cold water therapy while the weather settles down!

Loads of wonderful opportunities across East Lothian! With everything that’s happened to rural economy we have to help these small local businesses diversify to continue to thrive.
Heading off to talk to the Scottish Agritourism conference in Perth today. These are fabulous businesses that add to the richness and diversity of our tourism offer. Much to celebrate. @ScotAgritourism

Loved reading this. Absolutely not in this league myself but the relationship with the body of water as a coach is sublime. 🙏🏻

What an amazing start to the day - Belhaven Bay, East Lothian. Surfers and sunshine out, but temperatures dropped.

This was heartbreaking. Unfortunately banning fireworks is outwith Scottish devolved powers. I have written to new Labour UK govt to discuss this issue. 1/2

🏘️ We're bringing forward legislation to enhance tenants’ rights through measures such as rent controls.

📢 Scottish Labour backed this in committees but in the chamber they voted against rent controls.

❓ Labour must tell renters are they for or against rent controls.

Brrrr 🥶 - not been able to get in the sea for a couple days but thankfully my friend loaned me an ice bath to try. 7•C for 3 minutes helps improve my sleep and reduce anxiety.
Looking forward to my own tub arriving tomorrow! 🤪

I’ve been kinda struggling with how to cope with all that’s happening in the US political arena. I can’t let it overwhelm. My struggle was shared and a wonderful friend shared this podcast. Thought folks here might appreciate too.

📈 Scotland has seen the second highest growth in employment in the UK this month.

🇪🇺 We were second only to Northern Ireland - which unlike Scotland, has access to the EU single market.

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Scotland continues to enjoy a higher employment rate than England.
