Give Crieff A Chance

See you soon ☀️

The Scotswoman Who Started The War That Killed A King! There's a statue of a stool in Edinburgh's St Giles that started a war that would kill a King. In 1637, King Charles I wanted Scotland to follow the Anglican faith, where he could be in charge just like in England.

Waulking (in Gaelic luadh) is the technique of finishing the newly-woven tweed by soaking it and thumping it rhythmically to shrink and soften it - all done by hand in the old days. The songs served to keep the rhythm and lighten the work.

The village of Muthill, three miles south of Crieff in Perthshire. It was founded by Céli Dé or Culdee monks who established a community here in the 1100s. More pics and info: undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/muthill/muthil…

United in grief ❤️ Crans-Montana and the entire skiing community paid tribute “to all the victims, to those who assist, help, and provide care” forming a heart with their skis A beautiful message at a moment of unparalleled tragedy for this mountain community in Switzerland
