On the steep, steep side of Ben Lomond | Scotland | April 2023 This was one of the first especially intimidating munros I saw while walking north into the Scottish Highlands. Unfortunately, our route would not have us climb this fabled mountain. This view however, amazed me nonetheless. Upon nearing the base where the mountain paths lay, I observed two very much windswept hillwalkers shuffle down the trail. “Did you climb Lomond today?” I asked. “Oh yes”, they reply in a Scottish accent. “Incredibly windy up there. I felt like I was going to be blown off the hill at any moment!” Scottish Hillwalking aint for babies. While I had a monumental ascent up the north face of Ben Nevis, Scotland left me wanting more. Another trip, perhaps. I’ll be doing a print and post card sale soon, y’all! What images should I add back to my shop? Everything will be printed in advance this time, so if you have any suggestions as to what should go to print, add a comment!

Lomond Campbell - The Late Machine (live recording) - a teaser for the upcoming benefit compilation Peace and Plenty from Blackford Hill
From his workshop in the Scottish Highlands, Lomond Campbell invents ingenious music machines. In the forthcoming third issue of our printed journal, Oscillations, he tells us about some of his recent creations. Here’s a live recording of The Late Machine, filmed in Lomond’s studio.
Lomond Campbell lives quietly by a loch in the Scottish Highlands making music and building music machines. He released his debut album Black River Promise then took time out to finish building a studio and workshop called The Lengths where he makes all his work. He released LŪP, his first album on One Little Independent Records, last October and has recently followed up with another album called Lost Loops. He is currently working on a series of new machines and albums which will surface over the next 2 years. Lomond has also produced a few albums for other artists in The Lengths, including Kathryn Joseph and King Creosote.

Best of 2022 - Hiking & Cycling
Best of 2022 – Hiking & Cycling
One of the best years I’ve had hiking and cycling, with three multi-day hikes, two multi-day cycles, and many day trips. Spending three weeks walking around Kanchenjunga, the third highest mountain in the world, in November was an excellent motivator for doing as many training walks as possible. Hump Ridge Track, JanuaryOver New Year I walked this excellent three day hike along the south coast…

Imagine Ghost visiting Soap and starting singing “Loch Lomond” to Soap to find some bit of peace for the both of them, unknowingly that Soap is right by his side for comfort.
I’m listening to Ella Roberts version on repeat and I hope you enjoy the Emotional Damage
(Lyrics)
By yon bonnie banks and by yon bonnie braes
Where the sun shines bright on Loch Lomond
Where me and my true love will never meet again
On the bonnie, bonnie banks of Loch Lomond
O you take the high road, and I'll take the low road
And I'll be in Scotland afore ye
But me and my true love will never meet again
On the bonnie, bonnie banks of Loch Lomond
'Twas there that we parted, in yon shady glen
On the steep, steep side of Ben Lomond
Where in soft purple hue, the hieland hills we view
And the moon coming out in the gloaming
O you take the high road, and I'll take the low road
And I'll be in Scotland afore ye
But me and my true love will never meet again
On the bonnie, bonnie banks of Loch Lomond
The wee bird sing and the wildflowers spring
And in sunshine the waters are sleeping
But the broken heart it kens, nae second spring again
Though the woeful may cease from their grieving
O you take the high road, and I'll take the low road
And I'll be in Scotland afore ye
But me and my true love will never meet again
On the bonnie, bonnie banks of Loch Lomond
(Here’s the story)

(Follow up on ask) I want to try real hard to hike some part of the highlands, so anywhere up there really that I could get to by train.
And I’m also trying to go into Edinburgh to look around a bit! 🌿💚
(Also no pressure cause that is a big ask, just curious)
ah ok, highlands via train would be like west coast line up to fort william/mallaig, and tbh not super familiar with the areas (except for oban, which you can get a ferry to iona or mull etc from, which mull is vry nice. but check ferry things for that. also if you get off at luss or earlier at balloch you can get boat rides across loch lomond. loch lomond is so <3 i love going into the hills around there, haven't been to the arrochar alps tho which are on the side the train stations are on) Or you can get the train up from glasgow queen street in the inverness direction. i havent been to inverness but dunkeld & birnam on the way is very cute and has rly nice hikes from it (birnam hill!!, the hermitage!!, loch of the lowes). aviemore also has nice hikes going out from it (craigellachie nature reserve, plus steamtrain line up further north to abernethy forest type area maybe??? double check that). i'd stick to those lines rly for highland stuff. dont bother with aberdeen ive been told be so many people at this point (including from there) not to bother lol. its just boring. (unless youre using it to get on a ferry to orkney or shetland). .. hrmrmrmm for edinburgh. i am a bit of an edinburgh hater ,however the botanic gardens, the national gallery of scotland and lighthouse books are all nice. botanics are huge and nicely themed areas (and free except for the glasshouses which i've never been in) (but also out of th way of the city centre). national gallery has good stuff. lighthouse books is a queer-owned indie bookshop and has a rly nice selection of queer and political books but also various other local writers and things like that. its just rly nice. also Hadeel is palestinian gift shop items, so thats cool to go to i havent been tho. One world shop is also a nice fairtrade type shop. also i went to both holy cow cafe and lounge and the food was good . i will say tho that you absolutely can get into the highlands via edinburgh waverly but glasgow central + glasgow queen street have the west coast line + inverness route too, you'll need to go into glasgow for th west coast, in case you want to plan around that.
