No, it did not have a roof, which was unusual (and odd, given the Scottish weather!)

Fun fact on this Wimbledon Menโ€™s Final Day:

The worldโ€™s oldest tennis court can be found at Falkland Palace in Scotland.

It was built by King James V in 1539 and is still used to this day.

(James features in The Dance of Vipers but there is no tennis, Iโ€™m afraid).

Woohoo. My second novel is out today. The Dance of Vipers is a thriller set in Scotland 1517, with a bunch of viperous traitors competing to seize the 5-year-old king. Itโ€™s a sequel to The Trail of Blood but can be read as a standalone.

Anyway, will post the link in thread. X

Starmer and Lammy can fuck off with their pretence of frustration with Israel when they encouraged them to commit war crimes from day one and are actively assisting them now.

The next UK Government is going to be far right. The case for Scottish Independence is more urgent than ever.

Yesterday David Lammy was unequivocal that Israel is breaking international law. Today No 10 contradicts that and says it is merely โ€œat risk of breachingโ€ the law. It is an extraordinary position to put the Foreign Secretary in - who will now have to say why he was wrong, or why No 10 is wrong.

At the heart of every attack on disability benefits is the myth disabled people โ€œget perksโ€: a free car, loads of cash, a life off work. It misrepresents the reality of disability, whilst exploiting low wages and high living costs to make the public envy people in daily pain.

"The Gulf of America" is the new name for the chasm being created by Trump and Vance, between the US and every other country in the world (apart from Russia and Israel, obviously).
