The Scots who fought Franco


Tonight I enjoyed watching the programme on STV about the Scots who fought Franco. It was good to hear a little about the International Brigaders from Dundee in the programme. I think that it is important to remember this fight and the sacrifice made by many Scots in Spain.


I am in the process of reading the book associated with this programme Homage to Caledonia it is really interesting. Last year I was happy to take part in the rededication of the Spanish Civil War memorial in Dundee, you can see some pictures of that event here.


I am looking forward to the memorial moving back to Albert Square when the work on the McManus Galleries is finished.
