Today we lost the Scots Makar, Edwin Morgan who died aged 90.
"Don’t let your work and hope be other than great" he said.
Jimmy and Eddie going in the same week. Is it Armageddon? Who will now stride the stage and make us feel proud?
The Lockerbie tragedy(or rather Scotland's tragedy) is the great stain on our reputation. Our justiciary, our polity, our media; all stand accused of corruption in the eyes of the world.
Hang your head in shame fellow Scot.
Who amongst you will stand up and make us feel proud?
