Tonight I'll be giving my latest #Traquair talk, about the servants from 17th to 20th centuries @traquairhouse - for the third time in 9 days. A popular topic! #archives

Seen in #Avignon today. Maybe British #archives should adopt a more relaxed attitude to their holdings 🤔 !!!

Been having great fun transcribing early 17th century Shetland wills and testaments. Fascinating! #archives

Haha! Wonder what Lord Linton from #Traquair was doing to break a window. At least he paid for the damage! #archives

There was a lot of mountain malaga and malvoisie being drunk @traquairhouse in 1735! - not to mention other wines and spirits... #archives

We were so sorry to hear of the death of Sir Geoff Palmer. He was so helpful in advising on the revival of brewing at Traquair and even brewed here himself. (See the early bottle of Traquair House Ale!)
