A fabulous evening at Scottish Borders Chamber of Commerce Business Excellence Awards. I was reminded again (how could I forget) how generous and welcoming the business community in the Borders can be and how many genuinely authentic and lovely people there are.

A fantastic trip to the Highlands to meet with rural estate clients and get to see renewables projects up close. Also spending time with colleagues @WrightJohnston in Inverness. But the highlight? Lunch @TheSTOREHOUSE at Foulis Ferry #foodforhungrylawyers #lawyersforbusiness
