Sobre mimEx-Regular British Army Officer, become Orientalist: I attended the School of Oriental and African Studies (London University) and then the University of Kent at Canterbury (South East Asia Department). I worked for several years as a Journalist (latterly as a Defence Journalist), Editor, and writer.

I am currently researching preparatory to writing two books (there's a considerable overlap) - one on Toryism and the conservative parties in Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and the UK, and how they differ from the Republican party in the USA (and how all of them have lost connection with their roots through neo-conservatism); and the other on an analogous phenomenon in Scottish political theory and how it could fit in to the mood for Independence.

I retrained some years ago by doing the Cordwainers Saddlery and Harness-making course, and I currently also run a business making sporrans and highland regalia (when I'm not reading and writing).

The House by the Side of the Road
by Sam Walter Foss

Let me live in a house by the side of the road,
Where the race of men go by--
The men who are good and the men who are bad,
As good and as bad as I.
I would not sit in the scorner's seat,
Or hurl the cynic's ban;--
Let me live in a house by the side of the road
And be a friend to man.

I see from my house by the side of the road,
By the side of the highway of life,
The men who press with the ardor of hope,
The men who are faint with the strife.
But I turn not away from their smiles nor their tears--
Both parts of an infinite plan;--
Let me live in my house by the side of the road
And be a friend to man.

I know there are brook-gladdened meadows ahead
And mountains of wearisome height;
And the road passes on through the long afternoon
And stretches away to the night.
But still I rejoice when the travelers rejoice,
And weep with the strangers that moan,
Nor live in my house by the side of the road
Like a man who dwells alone.

Let me live in my house by the side of the road
Where the race of men go by--
They are good, they are bad, they are weak, they are strong,
Wise, foolish--so am I.
Then why should I sit in the scorner's seat
Or hurl the cynic's ban?--
Let me live in my house by the side of the road
And be a friend to man.
Duilich, A Dhaibhidh, chan fhaca mi gus an-drasda sin. Bithinn ag radh, "Bu choir dhutsa a toiseachadh Comhlan Gaidhlig"! Fo-sgriobhainn! :)
