Sir Thomas Urquhart Bart is recruiting someone to tend his mony fyne wigges and buy his clarett. Yes, #CromartyCourthouse needs a paid curator-manager - a dream of a job! https://t.co/2ZhjjzZG0C #museums @highlandmuseums @HLHArchives @KateyBoal @MuseumsGalScot @HeritageFundUK
On duty at #CromartyCourthouse today: 144 visitors, of whom 72 were American coach party visitors who came in solely to use our one ancient toilet. They moaned about the stairs and the loo flush. Not one of them made a donation or bought anything in the shop. Gross, @cietours!
Wee #Coronation party Γ deux at #CromartyCourthouse. Cheering up poor old #SirThomasUrquhart whose invitation to @wabbey clearly got lost... after fighting for CharlesII at the #BattleofWorcester an' all... we're here 12 - 4. #Cromarty #CoronationWeekend
..Sir T's invitation to @wabbey appears to have been lost in the post! Do cheer him up by paying a visit to #CromartyCourthouse between 12 and 4 daily including #CoronationDay - and it's FREE (unlike poor old Sir T for most of his life)... #CoronationWeekend #Coronation
Surrounded by such handsome gentlemen this afternoon... #CromartyCourthouse #CromartyisOpen #Cromarty
Lovely to see @TheAntonDuBeke channelling his inner #SirThomasUrquhart on #Halloween @bbcstrictly tonight... #CromartyCourthouse #Cromarty
*sighs* I will so miss turning these three gentlemen on for the entertainment of visitors... it's the end of the season and #CromartyCourthouse falls silent - but over the winter why not explore its extraordinary Learning Zone here πhttps://t.co/p7QXG7ZjLI @highlandmuseums
Sold one or two of these #Cromarty #Fishertoun aprons this week - but who knows what this phrase means, #twitterati? #CromartyCourthouse
Oh dear. First day of new job. Can't say my meeting with the boss went that well... #Cromarty #CromartyCourthouse #SirThomasUrquhart @cromartyarts @HI_Voices @CromartyKids @CromartyFirth @HighlandLIT
My new #Cromarty #Fishertoun #poem #Hunger will be hidden along the mown paths of the #CromartyCourthouse garden this weekend for you to find. Fishertoun was an oral language so breathe new life into it by reading a verse or seven aloud... @PoetryScotland #Cromarty #OpenGardens
I recently developed new #soundscapes for #CromartyCourthouse in #Cromarty, Highland: trials with excited chatter from spectators, a conversation between a debtor and his gaoler. #Audio is consistently underused as an interpretive medium. One for a London visit @ebirdwriter?
This house is the only one that is as it was in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. It is not tidied up, beds are left unmade β the whole house is frozen, inhabited by the sounds of the past β the sounds of the Jervis family who occupy this house.
For more info on #SirThomasUrquhart visit #CromartyCourthouse next spring and hear him tell that story for himself!
In order to translate #Rabelais (bawdy rollicking French) one has to have, er, rollicked! Sir Thomas Urquhart merits fame for more than just translation. His saving of two overwrought numpties from death for witchcraft was sheer genius.
@witchesofscotl1 in my recent scriptwriting commission for #CromartyCourthouse I used a witch trial story relating to the eccentric polymath Laird, Sir Thomas Urquhart. In the early 1600s as Sheriff of Cromarty he had the power of life and death over so-called 'witches'...
Have so enjoyed these, thank you @DuncanWChisholm. At #CromartyCourthouse @Laurenmaccoll1 has recorded the C18th reel #WhatTheDeilAilsYou for our Broken Fiddle trial #soundscape. Cuthbert MacKenzie the defendant was the fiddler at a nasty anti-'Gaelicker' pub brawl... @cnag_Alba
This is Beinn Laghail #FastTuneFriday with the jig Helvic Head
As we approach the final few posts of #TuneWithAView , as a thank you to the production crew who have supported me every step of the way Iβve added in a behind the scenes peek at the whole operationπ
@CreativeScots
Gilbert Anderson was an adversary of this gent, Sir Thomas Urquhart of Cromarty. One of the scripts I wrote for him mistakes the visitor for a relative of Gilbert's. They fell out over a pew, as you do! #CromartyCourthouse
Time for some favourite #mementomori All examples here come from the Black Isle. Do you have a particular favourite of your own? π
Meet the #ScramSconeChielachie, part of the new #CromartyCourthouse Learning Zone resources currently under development for the new academic year - schools will be able to access a role-play script in #Fishertoun dialect and a how-to recipe. @HighlandHistory @highlandmuseums
At #CromartyCourthouse take on a #TrialIdentity, hurl abuse in fluent #Fishertoun and listen to the voices of today's #Croms enacting their predecessors. Open free daily 12 - 4 not Mon or Fri. Thanks @MuseumsGalScot π π @KashiHouse @NorthCoast500 @HighlandLIT @highlandmuseums
Publication day tomorrow, sort of. Mostly I write books but this new commissioned work is drama. Hear four new #soundscapes within #CromartyCourthouse from Sat 29th: C17th Sir Thomas (Urquhart) Dreams, C18th The Broken Fiddle and The Mercat Cross, C19th The Smiddy Prisoner...
@chiddickstree A vivid peacock blue waistcoat underneath a dull brown coat! Currently refurbing the figures at #CromartyCourthouse. This one represents Jamesie Banks/Cuthbert MacKenzie, real people from C18th trials as recorded in the Kirk Session and other records @HLHArchives @NatRecordsScot
