On January 20th 1604 Alastair MacGregor of Glenstrae, Chief of the outlawed Clan Gregor was executed at the Old Tolbooth, Edinburgh.

In 1589 John Drummond, the Kings forester, was murdered after hanging some MacGregor’s for poaching. The Chief, Alasdair MacGregor of Glenstrae, gave shelter to the killer. Such was the highland honour to do so, he took responsibility for the act and was condemned by the Privy Council.

King James VI, issued an edict proclaiming the name MacGregor “altogidder abolished,” meaning that those who bore the name must renounce it or suffer death.

This wasn’t helped by probably the most significant event in MacGregor history which was the Battle of Glen Fruin on Feb 7TH 1603. The Proscriptive Acts of Clan Gregor were enacted on the 3rd of April 1603. This draconian ruling authorized the capture of Alasdair MacGregor of Glenstrae and his leading kinsmen.

For almost a year Alistair MacGregor evaded capture but when he was finally captured, he sought protection from the Chief of the Campbells to go to London to beg clemency from James the VI, who had recently claimed the English throne. The Campbells gave him safe passage to the borders, but arranged in advance for soldiers to capture him on the English side, and returned him to Edinburgh to stand trial with eleven of his chieftains.

The jury included many of Alastair’s bitterest enemies. To mark his rank, the Chief was hung higher than his kinsmen.

Today, visitors to Edinburgh will often notice people spitting on the Heart. Although it is now said to be done for good luck, it was originally done as a sign of disdain for the former prison of which the entrance lay directly at the Heart's location. It is then probable, that the spitting custom may have been begun by the accused.

Movie #88 of 2023: Kandahar

Let's be clear from the jump: this movie is bad. Weak story, plot, characters, motivations. Kudos to the costume department for draping over Butler's bloated, lumpy body to make him look like he could run, if needed. Butler looks tired and uninterested. Luckily he get's to sit a lot in this "road trip" movie. Butler stands at the beginning when he plugs the internet in (that's literally the inciting incident) and from there on out look for it with eagle eyes as Gerard finds a way to lean or outright sit in every scene. The only time I really believed Butler's acting was when he drank beer. He enjoyed it. I bet he's done booze ads in Japan before or something. This is no Geo Storm but it's a bit of a disaster in it's own right. Put your brain on hold and enjoy some of the decent action set pieces and stunts.

On January 20th 1604 Alastair MacGregor of Glenstrae, Chief of the outlawed Clan Gregor was executed at the Old Tolbooth, Edinburgh.

Alastair joined 11 of his clansmen that day, to mark his rank, he, as Chief, was hung higher than his kinsmen.

He was held in the Old Tollbooth which is now marked by the Heart of Midlothian. It is a heart-shaped mosaic, formed in coloured granite setts, built into the pavement near the West Door of St Giles High Kirk in the High Street section of the Royal Mile in Edinburgh.

It is situated close to Parliament House, which formerly housed the Parliament of Scotland and is now the home of the Court of Session.

This execution was the result of an ultimate betrayal by the Chief of the Campbells.

In 1589 John Drummond, the Kings forester, was murdered after hanging some MacGregor’s for poaching. The Chief, Alasdair MacGregor of Glenstrae, gave shelter to the killer. Such was the highland honour to do so, he took responsibility for the act and was condemned by the Privy Council.

King James VI, issued an edict proclaiming the name MacGregor “altogidder abolished,” meaning that those who bore the name must renounce it or suffer death.

This wasn’t helped by probably the most significant event in MacGregor history which was the Battle of Glen Fruin on Feb 7 1603. The Proscriptive Acts of Clan Gregor were enacted on the 3rd of April 1603. This draconian ruling authorized the capture of Alasdair MacGregor of Glenstrae and his leading kinsmen.

For almost a year Alistair MacGregor of Glen Strae evaded capture but when he was finally captured, he sought protection from the Chief of the Campbells to go to London to beg clemence from James the VI, who had recently claimed the English throne. The Campbells gave him safe passage to the borders, but arranged in advance for soldiers to capture him on the English side, and returned him to Edinburgh to stand trial with eleven of his chieftains.

The jury included many of Alastair’s bitterest enemies.

Today, visitors to Edinburgh will often notice people spitting on the Heart. Although it is now said to be done for good luck, it was originally done as a sign of disdain for the former prison of which the entrance lay directly at the Heart's location. It is then probable, that the spitting custom may have been begun by the accused.

David Tennant’s outfits over the past few events. Such sartorial excellence, I love all these patterns 👌

Edit: Most of these outfits are by Joshua Kane. The kilt in the first picture is by MacGregor and MacDuff.

Edit2: the jacket in the first picture is by Mithridate.

Thanks to @chaoticqueengalaxy and @t-he-art-of-beauty for the help in IDing everything!

Fall (15): I Fell for the low-budget vertiginous thriller.

#onemannsmovies review of "Fall" (2022). Terrifically tense and vertiginous survival thriller. Very much recommended for thrill seekers. 4/5.

A One Mann’s Movies review of “Fall” (2022). Having been on holiday, I now have some catching up to do! “Fall” is the first of a double bill I saw yesterday. Occasionally there’s a low budget movie (in this case, just $3 million) that does something novel and original and hits a nerve with audiences. It it does it well, then it can also be a massive hit. And “Fall” does do it very well…

North American Porcupine (Erethizon dorsatum) in MacGregor Point Provincial Park, May 2018. Porcupines are the second largest rodents in North America, just behind the Beaver.
