Congratulations to my extremely talented wife, whose book has been shortlisted for the Orwell Prize. (Tweeps - go and buy a copy and read it. Don't just take my word for it - that's the considered view of the Orwell Prize judges!)

To mark the 100-year annvrsy of the illustrious Margrat Duncan conducting us at our first Mòd (Greenock 1925), we had her grave in Twickenham Cemetery restored to its former glory.

Thanks to all who contributed! We'll be there on 30.11 @ 15:30 to pay our respects

@CoisirLunnainn was proud to take part in a celebration of the life of our dear friend, Chris Hood. He was a strong supporter of the choir, @ComunnGL, @LonGaelServices, and Scottish culture in London generally. He will be remembered fondly & missed greatly. Fois shìorraidh dha.

Fable by @AinsleyHamill gets even better with every listen. The album cover is also a work of gorgeous art. Too early to name the 2025 album of the year?

GIL has been informed of the following workshop series on Gaelic Mythology, if any of our followers might be interested in dialing in. (Not technically in London specifically, but as it is online it is in fact everywhere at the same time.) https://t.co/n9JiSBhqnY

[ComunnGL @ComunnGL]

@AinsleyHamill @samkellymusic @TobyShaer @AnterosArts @folkatthefroize @KingsPlace @hoyatanchorfolk @KitchenGarden3 There should be a good turn-out from @ComunnGL, @GaelicCL & @CoisirLunnainn. Dèanamh fiughair ris gu mòr.

@ComunnGL & @CoisirLunnainn were thrilled to attend the London launch of Joni Buchanan’s book, Ban-eileanaich Innse Gall - stories of resilience, courage and just a little mischievousness. 🙂

Chòrd gu mòr ri GIL a' chuirm-ciùil le @brichaimbeul aig an Eaglais Chruinn a-raoir. Agus ris na luchd-èisteachd uile gu leir, a bha air an casan aig an deireadh. Math fhèin!

Given that it is Gaelic week on social media, here is our quartet singing the port-a-beul set we performed at the Mòd in Paisley. Recorded on location at Crown Court Church of Scotland in Covent Garden and the Dulwich Folk Club.
