Lovely Antony Gormley figure emerging from the foliage at Stockbridge this week!

Started our Edinburgh Christmas tide with the blessing of the crib & an ecumenical service at the Assembly Hall. The crib is passed by 100s of folks walking up The Mound each day. Our Lord Provost Robert was there & we all had a lovely gathering with the Salvation Army Band playing. Excellent event!

I’m so sorry to hear that Paul Costelloe has died. We knew his family well and had terrific times when our children were at school together. RIP Paul.

One of our favourite moments from our interview with Rachel Leskovac is her describing her admiration of Barbara Dickson who she worked alongside in the original production of Spend Spend Spend! Listen to the full interview in The Recs Podcast (24 minutes in): linktr.ee/therecsuk #musicaltheatre

I recently appeared on Nicola Meighan’s podcast and got myself into hot water about the standard of music in Sandy Bell’s pub in Edinburgh. I could have said that about all sorts of places, but of course, they don’t play for locals. It’s for visitors I guess, so I was perhaps harsh.

I’m not doing any prep for Christmas this year, including decorations as I’m away for 10 days, and not back till the28th. Travelling to Liverpool, Manchester, Cardiff and finally Bristol. I’ve got bags packed but that’s all! x

I hadn't realised that this was shown yesterday but a nice plug for my 'Winter' album (!) and I've also done a new song and interview for the show which goes out early next year x

Looking forward to returning to #Ireland in April for dates in #Belfast, #londonderry, #bellaghy and #downpatrick! Details on my website, www.barbaradickson.net x

Wasn’t it good? 40 years ago this month, ‘I Know Him So Well’ was released… Elaine and I are still in The Guinness Book of Records for its sales xx

Been going to the gym 3 times a week for strengthening exercises and some cardio work, but I’m still unable to do 100% of the movement I had before… I’ve been advised not to run since my rotator cuff operation a year ago. I’m still working on that! x

Speaking of pals, my dear friend Billy Connolly was enjoying a very happy birthday when I sang to him the other day…. He’s on good form and enjoying life! x

My friend and original ‘Spend Spend Spend’ co-star Rachel Leskovac returns to the show and to glowing reviews as the older Viv at Manchester’s Royal Exchange. Do see it if you can in its limited run until early January x

Had a lovely time chatting to the lovely @nicolameighan.bsky.social for her podcast, ‘A Kick Up The Arts’. You can listen via all the usual apps and YouTube here: akickupthearts.org Bxx

It's a make-or-break moment for arts and culture in Scotland. Please join me in signing the Campaign for the Arts petition to urge ministers to deliver on their arts funding pledges now: tinyurl.com/6mexjnwh

We always love the Edinburgh panto but Cinderella is just superb, including a flying coach! Funny and well delivered.

Waiting for Cinderella to start here at the Festival Theatre. Very exciting!!!!!!!

Incredibly, 50 years ago this month, my first ever single, ‘Here Comes The Sun’ was released. Where do the years go?? Bxx

If you’re looking for Christmas music, my seasonal CD, ‘Winter’ is in stock via my website… link in Bio x

Things are happening behind the scenes and I have a meeting lined up for this week to discuss plans. Not ready to hang up my guitar just yet! Bx
