+## Sangschaw open for submissions!
+
+Our annual writing competition, the _Sangschaw_, is open for submissions until
+the 31st of January! As ever, we will provide feedback for every entry
+regardless of whether or not you win an award. It’s unusual for competitions
+like us to provide feedback on entries, but we think it’s important to help
+writers develop. We have three prizes:
+
+- The **Robert McLellan Prize for Scots Prose**: up to 3000 words of original
+  Scots prose.
+- The **John MacPhail Law Prize for Translation**: up to 3000 words of
+  original translation into Scots from another language. Provide along with a
+  copy of the original text.
+- The **Hugh MacDiarmaid Tassie for Poetry**: up to 60 lines of original Scots
+  poetry.
+
+Writers new and old are all welcome, so don’t hold back! We look forward to
+having your entries!
+
+You can enter for £5 for one category, £10 for two or £12 for all three,
+whether that’s all in the same category or spread across the three. You can
+submit either by email or by post.
+
+### Submitting by email

+following account. Remember, it’s £5 for one submission or £12 for three.

+## Upcoming album release: _Leid_

+Scots songs titled _Leid_. It will be coming early in the new year, so stay
+tuned in!

+
+## New audio guide at Linlithgow Palace
+
+This winter, the good folks at Historic Environment Scotland have translated
+their audio guides for visitors into Scots for the first time. The aim is to
+promote the status of the Scots language as well as to give visitors the
+opportunity to hear the voices of the court in something approaching their own
+language.
+
+You can read more
+<Link href="https://hes-newsroom.prgloo.com/news/new-scots-lug-in-guide-at-lithgae-palace">about the new audio guides on the Historic Environment Scotland website</Link>.
+
+As far as we know, this is the first such venture, not only by Historic
+Environment Scotland, but at any major tourist attraction. Can anybody think of
+anything similar? Answers on a postcard please!
+
+## Haven’t received Lallans 103 yet?
+
+It has come to the attention of George, our membership secretary, that there
+has been an error with the posting of _Lallans_ 103. Two members, both
+subscribers entitled to issue 103, failed to receive their copies.
+
+If you haven’t yet received your copy of _Lallans_ 103, which he posted out on
+Wednesday the 7th of November, please email George at
+<Link href="mailto:georgetwatt@hotmail.com">georgetwatt@hotmail.com</Link>
+and make us aware of it. A copy of _Lallans_ 103 will be posted out to you
+straight away!
+
+## New format for Eiks an Ens
+
+Old friends will recall that _Eiks an Ens_ has formerly been a literary
+magazine to accompany _Lallans_. We on the Committee felt that this neither
+gave _Eiks_ the distinct identity which it deserved, nor took full advantage of
+the opportunity it afforded to hold our community together.
+
+Therefore, this is the first issue of _Eiks_ to take a new format, where we’ll
+be endeavouring to share current affairs in the world of Scots language and
+literature, especially where it relates directly to our membership.
+
+So send us in your inside information! If you’ve spotted something you think we
+ought to share in the next _Eiks_, send it to lallans@hotmail.co.uk.
