A rare outing on X to thank @RegineEbner for sending a copy of her beautiful, inspired collection, Mountains that See in the Dark, published by @blackboughpoems ✨🏜️ In the second photo is what I think of it, from the book itself!

Still reeling after seeing Gabriela perform her own piano concerto in Edinburgh yesterday, followed by an astonishing & oddly moving improvisation on the daft Scottish song "Ye cannae shove yer granny off a bus," suggested by the audience 😂 She is literally made of music 🤯🤩

Thank you to the @BBCSSO BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra and Elim Chan for a wonderful week!

Now on my way to NY, then Easton and Wednesday: CIM. This autumn’s schedule is crazy.

I’m buying myself a bottle of Lagavulin at Edinburgh airport to enjoy on those few free evenings sitting by the fire with my hubby.❤️

@monterogabriela You have excellent taste in whisky, besides being the most incredible musician I have ever had the privilege of seeing/hearing 🤩

Breaking my long X hiatus to celebrate this outstanding poetry collection from my erstwhile collaborator @zr_ghani I kind of hate it because it makes me want to write poetry again 😅 It's so rich and powerful - a masterclass in potent writing. You're a true poet & storyteller!

[Andy MacGregor @macgregor_andy]

@RogerHare6 And you! All's good - as a mightier man than me once said, I'll be back! 😄

[Andy MacGregor @macgregor_andy]

@zr_ghani My pleasure! I only break cover for the greatest reasons 😅

@Loverdesart Brilliant! Thanks for sharing. What a great project - Scotland has very varied and interesting geology for such a wee place. Which made it the birthplace of many geological discoveries and theories. And the geology very much shapes the vegetation as you suggest ⛰️🏞️

[Andy MacGregor @macgregor_andy]

@RogerHare6 Cheers Roger! 🙏
