BBC News: Veteran broadcaster Robbie Shepherd dies aged 87.

RIP. Apart from his radio work he used to be the stadium commentator for the Highland Games. A grand job he made of it. A sad loss to lovers of the tongue.

Lovely story here about a retired lawyer who has completed a translation of the into , the dialect of and the surrounding area. Has me remembering the wonderful Jamie Stuart, one of my elders in , who did something similar with his " Gospels" and "Auld Testament Tales".

The sort ordering doesn't quite work as I'd hoped (I've broke the sort by slowest selling) and I haven't quite implemented a way to filter the books by category, although it half works from the URL.

You can filter for only Doric books with this link
chrisgilmour.co.uk/shop/shop1.
But I don't have many images listed for the Doric books yet, coming soon I guess.

Doing the subtitles for these is such a chore, though filming and editing the videos themselves is fun. If you’re still following along, here’s “I”:

I feel like my casting lists are out of date since the pandemic - who are the new / upcoming grads from NE or Highlands? Not for anything specific, but always looking for Doric speakers, and I work with music / movement a lot. I really need to get back on the showcase circuit but, in the meantime, do fire over any names that come to mind, please and thank you!
