David Maddox: Official endorsement of The Steamie from Alex Salmond's spokesman
Just come back from the weekly Scottish Government briefing that follows First Minister's questions.
Perhaps not surprisingly given what happened in FMQs the main topic of conversation was Mike Russell and unsubstantiated allegations over his supposed connection with a malicious blog run by his former employee.
Kevin Pringle, Alex Salmond's spin doctor in chief, was again reiterating how Mr Russell had no prior knowledge of the blog or its contents.
But, as an aside, Mr Pringle, a regularly reader of The Steamie, kindly took time to highlight it as the sort of blog preferred by the Scottish Government.
"We are into that sort of blog," he said.
It's obviously the season of generosity. So Happy Christmas to you Kevin and all other Steamie readers.

'It's obviously the season of generosity.'
We can hope! Best wishes to Mr Maddox and his contributors and to posters of whatever affiliation - such as Observer - who can comment with wit and without spitting blood and feathers.
