      Happy And Glorious

      Jun 1, 2022

      I’m looking at a picture of three well-padded chaps lying on the ground beneath a table laden with pies and poultry. These overindulged revellers planning to sleep it off might seem a familiar enough scene. But the artist has added some peculiar touc

      The Lightning Thread

      Sep 1, 2021

      The Lodge was a Victorian shooting box of minimal architectural distinction, belonging perhaps to the psychiatric baronial school. Its heavy, irregular exterior was set off by monkey puzzle trees, a mossy lawn and an embattled garden. The household w

      Alan Murdie’s article “Spirits of Glencoe” [FT428:18-21] describes the infamous massacre, along with latterday commemorations of the event, and the general atmosphere of foreboding that seems to pervade the Glen and surrounding area. Glen Coe is an a
