No Northern Lights (which I was gutted to miss last night but no sign of them by the time I realised they were on) but a frost on the fields looking towards the Abbey Craig and @TheWallaceMon as I head South this morning.

One year on, Putin has failed to extinguish 🇺🇦 belief in democracy - and instead reignited a global defence of it.
The people of Stirling, 🏴 and everywhere else across these isles have risen to the occasion.
