Day off in lieu today so have treated myself to some Banffshire style butteries for my breakfast. If you haven't encountered a buttery/ rowie, they're a bit like a flat, dense croissant. Banffshire style have a touch of oats in them and they're my new favourite!

Library haul. Clear is for LGBT+ bookclub, the Two Roberts was from the queer artists panel I saw a few weeks ago at Wayword. It's a novel about the two artists Robert MacBryde and Robert Colquhoun who were in a long term relationship after meeting at Glasgow art school in the '30s

Just finished the fifth and final book of TL Huchu's Edinburgh Nights series. Goodbye Ropa Moyo! I've loved these books and can't wait to see what Huchu does next

Also some classic dog and child running on drying tiles (with a note that the child likely stomped down hard on purpose 😂)

Went to the new Jewry Wall museum in Leicester today and really enjoyed it. Also really enjoyed getting to see the notebook and photos of Kathleen Kenyon, who excavated in the 1930s 🏺

Went to the Òran Mór yesterday! We were only in the downstairs venue so we didn't get to see the amazing painted ceiling which was a shame, but still nice to visit

Have had a nice day attending Wayword Festival events, eating my lunch in the graveyard, and having a wander around the art gallery. Managed to see Songs and Fancies, published by John Forbes, Aberdeen, 1682, that's currently on display
