My name is Scott McFarlane Liddell. ( why McFarlane? read this ).
By some freak I was born in Manchester but have lived in either or Edinburgh or Glasgow since I was wee. I live in Edinburgh with my wife and two dogs.
Currently on a career break doing lots of writing and photography.
I am a Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts.
I once sold George Takei 3 postcards.
I have written code in over 20 different programming languages. Some of it even worked.
I once maxed out the score on the scoreboard on the Monaco GP arcade game.
I have eaten a cheese toastie in the board room of the largest private company in India. It was nice.
I own a ZX81, a ZX80 and an Oric 1.
I’m a typophile. I have a favourite font.
You may have arrived here looking for the Liddell and Scott Greek-English lexicon.
As you may have noticed, I am not said book. You can find more info and links to various resources about the lexicon here.
I am a Level 8 Google Local Guide. That mainly involves, for me, taking pictures of my dinner.
My contributions on Google have been viewed over 59 million times. Which says a lot more about how busy Google is rather than how good the pictures of my dinner are.
I once had a photo on display in the National Portrait Gallery in London. Here I am cheesing in front of it.
It’s a picture of my Dad. I didn’t get his nose.
Has been a busy first half of 2023. 32 years after my first degree I completed a Masters in Philosophy. If you thought I was boring before…
And then the Dark Edinburgh book won and award. Which is nice.
And then my latest novel Science Fiction came out and is now available to pre-order
