A few pages about Craig Cockburn (or even C0ckburn!!) and his involvement with computing, Scottish culture, Gaelic activities, politics, singing, folk music, etc. Cockburn is a name from the Scottish borders and is pronounced "Coburn". Also listed in Who's who online. You can also read my Silicon Glen blog.

Craig hails from Dunblane, Perthshire and currently lives in West Lothian. He owns and develops the siliconglen.com website.

The obligatory mugshot.

This was taken in Nov 94 after graduating with M.Sc. from Napier University with distinction and class medal.

Our wedding was on 20th July 96 at Greyfriars Tolbooth and Highland Kirk in Edinburgh. This kirk is famous for the "Greyfriars Bobby" story which was made into a Disney film and is also where the Covenant was signed in 1638 and where the Gaelic Bard Donnchadh Bàn Mac an t-Saor is buried. He wrote many songs, including Màiri bhàn òg (MIDI sample). Greyfriars kirk dates from 1620 and was opened the day the Mayflower landed in America.
