After the death of Hugh MacDiarmid on 9th September 1978, his friend Norman MacCaig called instead of a minute’s silence for a Two Minutes Pandemonium for the great Scots poet. And pupils from Glenrothes High School, Banff Academy, St Andrew’s and St Bride’s High School, Biggar High School, Perth High School, Montrose Academy and Greenfield Academy on 9th September 2025 duly, gallusly and mervellously observed a Twa Minutes Pandemonium for Hugh MacDiarmid.
