I went to Barlinnie - aka The Bar-L, aka The Big Hoose, Scotland’s biggest and most notorious prison - for a day out with the Skids, and watched Connor Whyte and Richard Jobson win over some of Scotland’s most desperate men.

Very pleased to see STAY ALIVE: The Life and Death of Stuart Adamson by @ScottRowley4 go straight in at #4 on the Sunday Times bestseller list today. The book has overcome numerous obstacles on its way to publication and it’s so satisfying to see a book of this quality succeed.

It will be 25 years since we lost the late great Stuart Adamson, one of Scotland's finest musicians and songwriters. @ScottRowley4 has written this fantastic book that captures every facet of his life. Will never forget my time as part of Big Country. heraldscotland.com/life_styl…
