The old cathedral at Fortrose tonight, after a blood donor session nearby. Think that was my 52nd donation, but only the first this year.

The Highland Cross organisers had very kindly invited me along to the presentation event for passing over the monies raised to the various local charities. A general shyness with regard to social occasions had eventually led to apologies being sent. News of the blood donor session arrived after that, so hadn't had a decent excuse at the time. Then again, there's always the possibility someone had mistaken me for a local MSP with the same name. And I wouldn't fancy a seat at the top table, having to make a speech, or dish out the cheques. The other dignitaries would likely be somewhat disappointed...
