It’s the law to buy a book when in Wigtown, right? Didn’t even notice it was signed by @kirstininnes until I got home. Lovely surprise ✒️📖 #WBF20

And the Wigtown Scots Prize Winner is Robert Duncan (who won in 2018 and was runner-up last year) for his poem A Drystane Dyke. It's a beautiful poem about the Scots language itself and its centrality to Scotland's culture. #WBF20. #Wigtown. #Poetry.

Interesting, bittersweet talk with @solwaywalker & @pollypullar1 about the beauty of #TheSolway - so much lost, being lost and going to be lost unless we preserve it for future generations & adapt in time #wbf20 #Cumbria #climatechange
