Life sucks. Get on with it. The alternative isn't any better. Smile through physical pain, laugh through mental torture, love life.

I see some of you weren't paying attention. A Yes vote was for a new beginning. A No vote was a sign to start trying again. #the45plus

To insult two highly respected and free thinking politicians like this is disgraceful. It just shows how far standards in society have fallen. Anyone reposting this insulting photograph should feel utterly ashamed. 😡

Most likely details... Born - 16 April 1892 @ 25 Wolseley Street, Dundee. Died - Saturday, 22 August 1981 @ Royal Victoria Hospital, Dundee. Only part I haven't, 100%, matched is the military history. Military Foot Police, yes. Scottish Horse?

@BNArchive Francis Elliott Walters, born Cork, Ireland, 23/4/1871. No body recovered. Alexander Baker, born Limerick, Ireland, 3/4/1863. Buried with full honours - I presume at sea? *Dates of Birth as recorded on their service records.

When I spot something that I feel I need to know more about... Google - good but incomplete. @BNArchive comes up trumps.

@CWGC @ScotWarMemorial @InFromtheCold1 I'll hold my hands up... He is listed on the Scottish National War Memorial, if you know what to enter. I had looked for "J D" & "James" but he is entered as "J. D.", if I had only used puncuation. https://t.co/vk246JzHD0

“Is there a universe in which the United States could afford to lose its nuclear base in Scotland?” “No”. The basic plot mechanism of Netflix’s The Diplomat. You may now understand the media-political lock-out of a nuke-free Scots Indy
