Happy Days for the Highlands of Scotland, as they look forward to becoming a dumping ground for toxic royal waste. 🙄

The Castle of Mey is only 6 miles from John O'Groats, so it's about as far north as the UK's most senior nonce can be sent without putting him on a island. But an island would be much more appropriate, and less repugnant to Scots. Welcome to #Rockall, #PrinceAndrew. 3:)

#ThinSectionThursday Rockall may be a tiny wee lonely rock, but it's made of an exceptionally interesting granite with amazing peralkaline chemistry, ultra rich in barium and zirconium, for example. Here's a thin section (FOV 2mm wide) from the Hunterian Museum collections showing cloudy colourless (grey) perthitic feldspar, clear colourless (grey-black) quartz and large pale green-brown (rainbow) zoned aegirine crystals. 🤩 😋 I would love to land on Rockall! #Geology #Rockall

Anyone using the abhorrent phrase “train station” should be deported to #Rockall. Journalists and authors using it should be deported to Rockall TWICE.

David Cameron vetoes #Rockall fishing agreement between Scotland & Ireland

Despite #Irish & Scottish governments spending 2 years agreeing to the deal – #fisheries are a devolved power – it has been shut down by the Foreign Office

Sources said the reason was entirely political - UK Govt didn't want to be seen agreeing a deal with an #EU nation

The veto is latest example of #Westminster overruling devolved #Scottish government decisions

I think I may have a robot fetish. #Rockall wasn’t my first love.

I am still awed and amazed that I can see Mars.
