Dunsinnan

The ramparts of the Iron Age hill fort stand out clearly in the sunshine. This is the Dunsinane Hill of Macbeth. Shakespeare changed the stress in the name to suit the poetry, and moved it much nearer Birnam. There is no sign of a fortification at the time of Macbeth either.

It was a beautiful day out, but a cold wind at the top. We climbed the nearby higher Black Hill too.

It's a strange time; the calm before the storm perhaps. My diary is empty, following cancellation of Photo Club, Probus, Rotary and curling; yet I have been busy getting out refund cheques for a cancelled Probus weekend away, and tidying up from the sudden closure of our photo club exhibition in Scone Library.
