Newly retired. Spent 10 years as DKS at The WS Society, and nearly 40 specialising in land & planning law. Still interested in that. And so much more.

@signetlibrary @kgbaston Agreed. I so enjoyed the talk and the mini exhibition. A brilliant start to this new series . Thank you @kgbaston and @signetlibrary . I look forward to the future talks.

@henningwehn It’s super weird when they dictate the note, saying something like that, in front of you - as happened to me. As the consultant looks over at you with an expression that says “see what I just said about you?” You try to compose your features into an “aw gee shucks” look.

@theoliviamcleod @Gildedballoon Just seen this brilliant show! So funny. And don’t worry - there’s no blood. Just lots of laughs!

[Caroline Docherty OBE @CarDocherty]

@cocteautriplets Hats are all wrong - but otherwise spot on!

[Caroline Docherty OBE @CarDocherty]

@cocteautriplets I used to be the Deputy Kipper of the Cygnet. Could we have that one please Andy?

[Caroline Docherty OBE @CarDocherty]

@cocteautriplets And Fettes College. And Fife!

@KieranCHodgson Brilliant show. Just as good as everyone told me during the Edin Festival last year. Couldn’t get tickets then, but so glad I left the Tesla and Edinburgh setts behind to see you in your adopted home. Some parts you must have been nervous about doing in Glasgow but no need. Bravo

⁦@MrAndrewCotter⁩ spotted on holiday. Unable to shake hands due to tiny arms.

[Caroline Docherty OBE @CarDocherty]

⁦I may not have tweeted positively enough about @mrjackdocherty ⁩’s current EXCELLENT Fringe show. But I proudly posed for this photo. Even although the otherwise accurate portrayal of his teenage years contains no reference to his only sibling. Go! It’s really not bad.

@mrjackdocherty @theoliviamcleod “For an old guy - he ain’t bad.” Will that do?

[Olivia McLeod @theoliviamcleod]

it's mid show season, meaning there's foundation on all my tops, I haven't slept properly in days, and I just dropped my spoon in the soup

@MichaelRosenYes With the Waitrose app you can scan your shopping as you go round - with your phone.

[Caroline Docherty OBE @CarDocherty]

@MissCScotland @citzgirl @thewssociety @signetlibrary Fantastic shot. I love that view.

[Caroline Docherty OBE @CarDocherty]

@oldscotbooks I read this and thought - oh, lovely, an historic document about SRO. Then I read “30 plus years old”, and realised that the period when I was visiting regularly, as a trainee solicitor, was 40 years ago.

[Caroline Docherty OBE @CarDocherty]

@mcdermottkc_ @Moncler I am not sure. But on a recent holiday to the Amalfi Coast I saw this and thought of you!

[Caroline Docherty OBE @CarDocherty]

@AlexAndBooks_ Surprisingly (for me) not fiction : Written in Bone (and All that Remains) by Professor Dame Sue Black. Read by the author - such an interesting explanation of forensic anthropology by a truly engaging expert in her field.

[Caroline Docherty OBE @CarDocherty]

@RevRichardColes The worst thing about the thing you so rightly say is worst is that it isn’t even *** it, *** it, **** it - the last one is ****ed. It took me years of thinking it made no sense to realise it makes no sense for a different reason.

[Caroline Docherty OBE @CarDocherty]

@MattChorley People who,when asked for their order by a clearly harassed staff member, sigh slowly and say “I am thinking either the chicken or the pork. Which is your favourite?” and the rest of the table tries to convey, without words, that they too think their dining companion is a prat.

[Caroline Docherty OBE @CarDocherty]

@beckymbarrow Ooh - a great haul.
