Last week we left acclaimed children’s author and storyteller Tony Bonning singing songs and telling tales at Glenlochar playgroup, a chance pastime which was in time to become his vocation.
He and his family had moved from the Lothians to Knockvennie, over the hill from Parton, in 1992, eight years after he bought a piece of land on Screel Hill, which he named Taliesin.
He had founded his own tech company CTT, was a freelance journalist and had worked on ITV’s Oracle teletext service.
