Of Arms and the Man He Sings

The other kind of arms: coats of arms. "Emcadi" points me to the probably armigerous Andrew Cusack's wonderful series of pictures of the heraldic conference held recently in St Andrews. You can find it here. You can see what the new Lyon King looks like. ("New" is, of course, a relative term. After so many years in that office Sir Iain Moncreiff of that Ilk will always be "the" Lord Lyon King of Arms.)

(And many thanks to "Emcadi", to whom I also owe even more correspondence. The transfer of computers means she's probably not alone in being lost in the electronic shuffle. If I owe you too, apologies are hereby tendered.)
