I just read a post on Mashable about Lieutenant Colonel Dougie Graham, commander of the 2nd Battalion of the Royal Regiment of Scotland, and his upcoming responsibility to post on Twitter about his experiences.

This weekend was a pretty busy one. If I wasn’t out of the house, I was working on a client project. On Saturday, I went to the Gathering of the Clans, a work event, and took many photographs while watching people geocache, hike, bike and then we ate beef on a bun. All in all,… Read more
