@cocteautriplets @dgcouncil @natlibscot & #DYK the term Macaroni was used mid C18th to refer to rich men who wore elaborate dress seen in Europe.
Probably from the Macaroni Club, a fashionable dining society specialising in foreign foods & maybe connected to the Italian 'maccherone' meaning fool https://t.co/1eTddTyqui

#ArchiveCastle from Corgarff, Aberdeenshire 🗺️
Originally a noble residence, this medieval tower house became an army base for hunting down Jacobite sympathisers & later whisky smugglers - we're pretty sure *The Castle Ladies* have tales to tell.
