The Herald Diary 2022/23: A Dam Good Laugh
Lorne Jackson
Whilst the past year has been almost as unpredictable as the British weather, we can be certain of one thing. The readers of the Herald will send the newspaper’s Diary column letters containing oddities such as an appearance of the Hollywood sign in Scotland and spinach-themed banquet faux pas among other incidents glimpsed, overheard and undertaken that simply had to be shared.And with 2022 being no exception, you will find this edition to be a treasure trove of comedy gold, describing a variety of unfortunate events, silly circumstances and downright foolishness to make you groan, wince and, of course, laugh out loud.So, whether you enjoy the suffering of a man with a hot flush, the banter of Ronnie Barker or you just want to know how a cat could win an Oscar, the Herald Diary is well worth a read.
Lorne Jackson
Lorne Jackson began his career as a diarist at a precociously youthful age, when his parents bought him a blank notepad at seven-years-old. When he realised that he was unlikely to witness much in the way of momentous events from his vantage point in a West Lothian council house, Lorne took a sabbatical from diary writing. In the ensuing years Lorne worked as a travel writer, columnist, books editor, restaurant reviewer, feature writer and all-round Jackson-of-all-trades, before returning to his initial love when he took over the fabled mantle of Herald Diarist.
