@MillarTap @FRLSU @project_ERSKINE Thank you, Alan - and I learnt so much from yours. I think that in the future, it would be great to look at the journalistic writing of these twentieth-century figures - Thomson, Hector MacDougal, and others Gaelic, Reynolds in Ulster Scots, Ó Cadhain in Irish ... let's think!
